BIOGRAPHICAL  SKETCH 

OF 

Dr.  J.  G.  P..  Bulloch. 

Dr.  Joseph  Gaston  Baillie  Bulloch  was  born  in 
Roswell,  Cobb  County,  Georgia,  and  was  the  son 
of  the  distinguished  physician,  surgeon,  and  ocu- 
list, Dr.  William  Gaston  Bulloch,  and  his  wife 
Mary  Eliza  Adams  Lewis,  both  natives  of  Savan- 
nah, Georgia.  He  attended  the  Hebrew  College 
at  Savannah,  Georgia,  and  several  other  schools, 
then  went  to  Yorkville  Military  School,  Yorkville, 
South  Carolina,  thence  to  Bryant,  Straton  & 
Sadlers  Business  College,  Baltimore,  Maryland. 
After  being  in  the  employ  of  several  business 
houses  and  also  a  reweigher  of  cotton,  he  decided 
to  study  medicine,  entering  the  Savannah  Medical 
College,  of  which  his  father  had  been  a  professor. 

During  the  yellow  fever  epidemic  of  1876.  in 
Savannah,  Doctor  Bulloch,  though  only  a  medical 
student,  volunteered  and  did  able  service  in  the 
Savannah  Poor  House  and  Hospital  and  also 
attended  other  cases  outside  that  institution. 

As  the  Savannah  Medical  College  had  to  sus- 
pend  its   curriculum,   it   became   necessary   tiiat 


Doctor  Bulloch  should  go  elsewhere,  so,  as  his 
father  had  been  in  Paris,  France,  with  several 
of  the  faculty,  it  was  decided  that  Doctor  Bulloch 
attend  the  South  Carolina  Medical  College,  at 
which  institution  he  graduated  March  7,  1877. 
Shortly  after  graduation,  he  went  from  Savannah 
to  Hawthorn,  Florida,  where  he  rose  to  be  one 
of  the  foremost  physicians  of  that  place.  He  also 
practiced  in  Palatka,  Florida,  and  was  made  a 
member  of  the  Board  of  Health  for  Putnam 
Count)'  and  Health  Officer  of  the  city  and  county 
when  the  city  had  the  smallpox  in  it.  He  was 
also  one  of  the  organizers  of  Alachua  County 
Medical  Society,  and  a  member  of  the  Putnam 
County  Medical  Society,  and  a  member  of  the 
Florida  State  Medical  Society,  also  President  of 
a  Benevolent  Society  in  Alachua  County,  Florida. 

Besides  being  a  physician  of  standing  and  con- 
siderable reputation,  he  was  also  a  very  good  sur- 
geon and  somewhat  of  an  oculist,  having  per- 
formed the  following  operations :  amputation  of 
shoulder  joint,  foot,  operation  for  cataract,  hair- 
lip,  ptosis  and  trichiaris  of  eyelids,  relieving  a 
blind  girl  so  that  she  could  go  to  work,  and  en- 
abling an  old  sightless  negro  to  see  the  light  of 
day.  He  was  also  very  successful  in  obstetrical 
cases  and  a  physician  of  experience. 

In  1S95,  he  stood  a  Civil  Sendee  Examination 
and  out  of  forty  applicants  was  one  of  ten  to  pass 
and  one  of  seven  to  receive  an  appointment  as 
physician  in  Indian  Service.  During  the  same 
year  he  was  sent  by  the  Surgeon  General  of  the 
Marine  Hospital  Service  as  Sanitary  Inspector 
on  the  Revenue  Cutter  Forward,  to  patrol  the 
Gulf  Coast  to  look  for  yellow  fever  infected  ves- 
sels. He  then  went  to  Pima,  Arizona,  as  Agency 
Physician  to  the  Pimas,  Papagoes  and  Maricopas, 
and  to  the  Indian  School.  From  there  he  went 
to  Gulf  Quarantine,  Mississippi,  in  the  Marine 
Hospital  Sen-ice,  as  Acting  Assistant  Surgeon, 
having  to  be  present  during  the  fumigation  of 
vessels.  After  leaving  there  he  went  back  to  In- 
dian Service  and  was  sent  to  Oneida  Indian  Indus- 
trial School  and  attended  the  Oneida  Indians  and 
the  Oneida  Hospital  of  Episcopal  Church.  Then 
was  sent  as  school  physician  to  Cheyenne  River 
Agency,  South  Dakota,  where  he  attended  the 
children  at  the  school  and  the  Indians  on  the 
Reservation.  From  there  he  went  to  Cherokee 
Indian  School,  North  Carolina  and  attended  as 
physician  to  the  school  and  the  Cherokee  Indians. 
After  leaving  there  he  went  by  transfer  to  Wash- 
ington, D.  C,  Pension  Office,  where  he  rose  to 
be  Medical  Examiner.  Doctor  Bulloch  has  also 
been  a  writer  of  many  articles  on  historical  and 
sanitary  subjects,  his  articles  to  be  found  in  dif- 
ferent medical  magazines  and  other  printed  mat-

by  2  cents  in  stamps  for  each  question  asked. 

2.  In  referring  to  a  query  or  answer  that  has  been

38.  NORTON. — Can  any  one  give  me  any  in- 
formation regarding  Chlce  Norton,  b.  17SS,  who 
went  on  horseback  from  Ohio  to  Poultney,  Ver- 
mont, about  1808-9,  where  she  met  and  married 
Stephen  Howe,  Jr.  Their  first  born  son  was 
named  James,  (  b.  Jan.  1810).  There  were  other 
children  whose  names  I  do  not  know,  except 
fine,  Marion,  b.  in  1820,  d.  1847.  All  d.  in  in- 
fancy, except  James  and  Marion.  I  think  Chloe's 
mother  must  have  been  Chloe.  as  3  old  spoons 
are  marked  "C.  N." — evidently  part  of  an  orig- 
inal set.  Was  there  a  Plattsburgh,  Ohio? — 
F.  H.  J. 

30.  JOHNSON. — Can  some  .one  tell  me 
whence  came  the  settlers  of  Frederick  and  Shen- 
andoah Counties,  Ya.,  by  the  name  of  Johnson? 
I  do  not  know  whether  all  were  related  or  not,  but 
am  most  interested  in  Jacob  Johnson,  who  settled 
in  Frederick  County,  near  Tilpanzie's  Branch, 
his  land  being  granted  by  Fairfax,  Oct.  13,  1763. 
Supposed  to  have  moved  to  Washington  County, 
Penn.,  about  1772.  Should  be  so  grateful  for 
any  information  concerning  him,  or  his  sdn 
(supposed)  Joseph,  who  married  Elizabeth  Wat- 
son, and  lived  in  Marshall  County,  W.  Ya.,  where 
he  was  drowned  in  Fishing  Creek,  about  1790 
to  '93,  leaving  one  son,  Jacob,  who  went  to  live 
with  his  uncle,  David  Watson,  in  the  "Pan- 
handle of  W.  Ya."     Elizabeth  Watson  Johnson 


later  married  a  widower  named  Gard  (possibly 
John)  of  Parkersburg,  W.  Va.,  who  had  two 
sons,  Dick  and  Jerry.  Elizabeth  Watson's  father 
lived  near  Brownsville,  Pa.,  on  a  branch  of  the 
Monongahela  River.     Who  was  he? — F.  H.  J. 

40.  LOCKER-LOCKHART.— John  Lockhart, 
supposed  to  have  came  from  Ireland  with  his 
family  early  in  the  18th  century,  settling  in  Vir- 
ginia. I  have  wondered  if  they  did  not  first  lo- 
cate in  Pennsylvania?  One  of  his  sons  was 
named  William  and  another,  Walter. — F.  PL  J. 

41.  BARTO,  BARTON,  BAR DEX.— Walter 
Locker  (Lockert.  Lockhart),  married,  it  is  said  a 
Miss  Barto,  Barton,  Barden,  first  name  perhaps 
Nancy  or  Elizabeth,  and  said  to  be  a  connection 
of  Aaron  Burr,  perhaps  a  niece,  or  cousin.  Wal- 
ter Lockhart  and  family  lived  in  Loudon  County. 
Va.  The  names  of  his  children  were  Jetha, 
eldest  son,  b.  1784,  John,  Thomas.  George, 
William,  Sarah,  b.  1794,  Mary,  and  Elizabeth. 
I  shall  be  very  grateful  for  any  information  on 
these  Norton,  Johnson,  Watson.  Lockert,  and 
Barton  families,  as  information  about  them  seems 
to  elude  me. — F.  H.  J. 

42.  COLEMAN. — John  Coleman,  was  born 
Oct.  28, 1778,  at  East  Hartford,  Conn.  (  bible  rec. ) 
He  was  the  only  child  of  this  marriage  and  was 
brought  up  in  the  family  of  Appleton  Hollister. 
His  mother  was  Lucy  Hollister,  dam  of  John 
and  (Mitchell  Fox?)  Hollister.  She  married  a 
second  and  third  time — Ackley,  and  Jeremiah 
Ferguson.  Ancestry  of  Tohn  Coleman  very  much 
desired.— L.  M.  W. 

43.  WILLIAMS. — Information  wanted  of 
Mrs.  Mary  Ellen  Tice  Williams,  who  lived  near 
Mobile,  Alabama,  in  1870  and  1873.— H.  L.  S. 

44.  BEEBE,  SMITH,  RAY.— Conrad  Ray.  b. 
about  1773.  d.  about  1875,  aged  103  vrs.  m. 
Charity  Smith,  b.  Oct.,  1794,  ch.  Edward.  Har- 
riet, Mahala,  Silvia  and  Eliza.  All  were  b.  in 
Ellisburg,  N.  Y..  Eliza  b.  Oct.  30,  18-20.  m.  in 
Henderson,  N.  Y.,  July  30,  1840,  Horatio  Nel- 
son Matteson,  b.  Oct.  4,  182:2,  in  Melville,  N.  Y., 
son  of  Horatio  Nelson  Matteson  and  wife — 
Beebe.  Wanted  ancestry  of  H.  N.  Matteson  and 
wife — Beebe,  Charitv  Smith,  and  Conrad  Ray. — 
H.  L.  S. 

45.  MATTESON.— Who  was  the  immigrant 
Matteson  and  where  did  he  settle? — H.  L.  S. 

46.  DOWNING.— Ancestry  of  Mary  Down- 
ing, who  was  born  Nov.  22,  1779,  married  in 
1800,  Noah  Maltby.  Noah  Maltby  was  a  hatter 
by  trade,  and  born  in  1774,  was  living  in  Wood- 
bury, Conn.,  at  the  age  of  17,  but  from  that  time 


till  1811  when  the  family  had  settled  at  West-1 
moreland.  Oneida  County,  N.  Y.,  we  are  unable

working  at  his  trade  in  some  of  the  larger  towns.

21.  Gen.  Washington's  Body  Guard. — One  of 
the  interesting  facts  concerning  the  military  his- 
torv  of  the  Revolution  is  that  Washington's  body- 
guard was  largely  made  up  of  Germans.  There 
hail  been  Tories,  or  at  least  suspects,  in  the  first 
bodv-guard  appointed,  and  plots  were  revealed 
by  which  the  person  of  the  commander-in-chief 
was  to  be  seized.  Oh  the  advi.:e  of  Washington's 
private  secretary  and  adjutant,  Reed,  who  was  of 
German  descent,  a  troop  was  formed  consisting 
entirely  of  Germans,  called  the  Independent 
Troop  of  Horse,  and  placed  under  the  command 
of  Major  Earth.  Van  Heer,  a  Prussian,  who  had 
served  as  cavalry-  lieutenant  under  Frederick  the 
Great  in  the  Seven  Years'  War.  Of  Washing- 
ton's good  opinion  of  German  soldiers  we  find 
a  proof  in  his  letter  to  the  President  of  Con- 
gress, dated  June  30,  1776:  "The  battalion  of 
Germans  which  Congress  has  ordered  to  be 
raised  will  be  a  corps  of  much  service,  and  I  am 
hopeful  that  such  persons  will  be  appointed  offi- 
cers as  will  complete  their  enlistment  with  all 
possible  expedition." 

Van  Heer  recruited  most  of  his  men  in  the 
Pennsylvania  German  counties,  Berks  and  Lan- 
caster. They  began  to  serve  in  the  spring  of 
1778,  and  were  honorably  discharged  at  the 
end  of  the  war,  twelve  of  them  serving  longer 
than  any  other  American  soldiers,  having  the 
honor  of  escorting  the  commander-in-chief  to 
his  home  at  Mount  Vernon.  These  twelve  men 
each  received  presents  of  arms,  accoutrements, 
and  a  horse,  as  we  learn  from  a  written  record  in 
the  possession  of  the  family  of  one  of  the  twelve, 
Ludwig  Boyer,  discharged  December  10,  1783. 
Washington's  body-guard  consisted  of  fourteen 
officers  and  fifty-three  men,  nearly  all  Germans — 
exclusively  Germans,  according  to  the  testimony 
of  Colonel  John  Johnson,  sometime  president  of 
the  Historical  and  Philosophical  Society  of  Ohio, 
and  personal  friend  of  Washington.     In  the  pen- 


sion  lists  of  1S28,  a  number  of  names  of  soldiers 
belonging-  to  Van  Heer's  troop  are  given.  Boyer 
was  granted  a  pension,  one  hundred  pounds  an- 
nually; Jacob  Fox  (Fuchs),  who  had  lost  his 
discharge,  brought  as  witnesses  two  former  com- 
rades, Buckhardt  and  Trischer,  who  both  swore 
that  they  had  belonged  to  Van  Heer's  corps  and 
that  that  troop  was  the  body-guard  of  Washing- 
ton. (The  German  Element  in  the  United  States.

AUGUSTA  COUNTY,   YA. 

In  1733,  all  of  the  territory  west  of  the  Blue 
Ridge,  and  extending  in  other  directions  to  the 
utmost  limits  of  Virginia,  from  Orange  County, 
was  erected  into  two  counties,  Frederick  and  Au- 
gusta, the  line  between  them  was  from  the  head 
spring  of  Hedgman's  river  to  the  head  spring  of 
the  river  Fotomack.  Augusta  was  much  the  lar- 
ger and  embraced  the  present  counties  of  Rock- 
ingham, part  of  Page,  and  to  the  south,  to  the 
borders  of  \"a. ;  to  the  west  and  northwest  ex-

and  the  western  part  of  Pennsylvania.  In  1739, 
the  Presbyterians  of  Augusta  Co..  applied  to  the 
Presbvtery  of  Donegal  for  a  pastor  to  reside 
among  them.  In  IT  10  the  Rev.  John  Craig  was

FIRST  SETTLERS  OF  THE  SHENAN-

Waddell,  in  Annals  of  Augusta  County,  Ya., 
-ays :  It  is  believed  that  all  of  the  earliest  settlers 
:ame  from  Pennsylvania  and  up  the  Valley  of  the 
Shenandoah.  It  was  several  years  before  any 
settlers  entered  the  valley  from  the  ea^t  and 
through  the  gaps  in  the  Blue  Ridge.  John  Lewis, 
emigrant  from  Donegal,  Ireland,  to  Pennsylvania, 
joined  the  party  of  Joist  Hite,  also  from  Pa.,  to 
settle  a  tract  of  40,000  acres  in  Ya.,  in  1732.  Hite 
settled  below  Winchester.  Lewis,  the  first  white 
settler  in  the  valley,  settled  two  miles  east  of 
what  was  later  the  town  of  Staunton.     The  twin

A  BAPTISMAL  CERTIFICATE. 

Translated  from  the  German,  by  Gaius  M.  Brum- 
baugh, M.  D. 

To  these  two  spouses,  namely  Michael  Senger 
and  his  housewife  (Lawful  wife),  Johanna,  mar- 
ried daughter  (in  lawful  wedlock),  born  of  Fran- 
ciscus  Schaefferin,  was  born  to  the  world,  as 
follows : 

In  lawful  wedlock  born  Michael  Senger  was 
delivered  into  this  world  full  of  woe  in  the  year 
of  our  Lord  Jesus  Christ,  1788,  on  the  first  day 
of  March,  at  five  o'clock  in  the  morning,  under 
the  sign  of  the  Ram,  was  advanced  after  corporal 
birth  to  Spiritual  regeneration  by  Pastor  Hoerne, 
Lutheran  Preacher,  in  the  month  of  April,  1788. 

Baptismal  Witnesses  were  Christian  Werth 
and  others. 

This  said  Michael  Senger  was  born  and  bap- 
tized in  America,  in  the  Government  of  Pennsyl- 
vania, in  the  principal  city  of  Dauphin,  in  Leba- 
non,   ,  Township,  . 

When  we  are  scarce  born,  from  the  first  step 
of  life  unto  the  cool  grave  in  the  earth,  is  but  a 
short  measured  step.  Alas,  with  every  moment 
our  strength  is  waning,  and  with  each  year  we 
are  but  too  ready  for  the  bier,  and  who  knows  in 
what  hour  the  last  summons  will  awaken  us.  As 
God  has  not  discovered  with  his  mouth  to  any 
man,  how  his  house  is  arranged,  go  joyfully  from 
this  world.  Since  on  the  contrary  the  certainty  of 
eternal  death  can  excite,  grant  us,  O  Lord,  thy 
grace.  When  once  in  accordance  with  Thy  plan 
I  must  depart  this  life  (grant)  that  it  may  be  in 
gladness.  My  body  and  my  soul  I  do  commend 
to  Thee,  O  Lord. 

A  happy  death  give  us  Through  Jesus  Christ. 
Amen.

Note. — "Ye  Kingdom  of  Accomacke," 
bv  Wise,  lately  published,  savs  that  Gov. 
William  Stone,  father  Capt.  Jonn  Stone, 
was  killed  during  a  visit  to  Xew  England 
(killed  by  Indians  on  the  Pequot  River, 
Connecticut),  and  he  surmises  the  Stones 
and  Cottons  came  to  Virginia  from  Xew 
England.  He  thinks  Rev.  William  Cotton 
too  fervid  and  austere  to  be  an  Anglican 
minister  and  thinks  his  ways  indicate  puri- 
tanism.  All  other  records  consulted  give 
this  Capt.  John  Stone  as  William's  brother. 
Wise  also  says  that  Verlinda  Cotton  was 
the  Rev.  William  Cotton's  daughter ;  other 
accounts  give  her  as  his  sister  and  the 
daughter  of  the  widow  Joan  Cotton  :  but 
Wise  thinks  her  a  granddaughter  of  Joan. 
It  would  be  most  satisfying  to  know  his 
authorities.  He  also  says  that  the  Rev. 
Francis  Doughty  married  the  widow  Ea- 
ton. Other  accounts  say  iie  married  Mar- 
garet Stone,  the  sister  of  Gov.  William, 
though  the  Eaton  marriage  might  have 
been  a  second  one. — I.  M.  S.

26.  The  gentleman  may  have  knowledge 
of  the  book  which  I  am  going  to  mention 
and  it  has  reference  to  estates  left  only  in 
England.  The  title  is  "Index  to  Persons 
Who  Have  Left  Estates,"  edited  by  Sid- 
ney H.  Preston,  address,  Lonsdale  Cham-

I  found  a  copy  of  the  book  in  the 
public  library  of  St.  Louis,  Mo.,  and  looked 
over  it. 

This  may  be  out  of  place,  as  it  may  be 
another  book  for  which  he  was  inquiring. 
This  book  was  about  eight  inches  long,  but 
a  rather  thin  book,  as  I  remember  not  more 
than  a  half  or  three-fourth  inch  thick.  It 
gives  the  name  of  the  heir  who  left  the 
fortune,  and  each  one  is  numbered  and  _you 
write  and  give  that  number. — W.  J.  G.

COATS  OF  ARMS. 

CO-N'TRIBUTED  BY  MRS.    EnNIS. 

Most  persons  have  a  general  knowledge 
of  what  coats  of  arms  are,  but  few  know 
whether  they  have  a  right  to  use  their 
supposed  family  arms,  and  fewer  still 
know  anything  of  their  meaning.  Simply 
because  one's  name  may  be  found  in  the 
Dictionary  of  Court  Armor  is  no  reason 
for  claiming  amis  without  family  records 
to  prove  a  right.  Before  proceeding  fur- 
ther I  will  quote  from  Mill's  "Foundations 
of  Genealogy,"  giving  a  brief  explanation 
of  the  origin  of  coats  of  arms  and  defini- 
tions of  a  few  heraldic  terms  which  may  be 
■  helpful. 

"Xo  precise  date  can  be  given  for  the 
beginning  of  the  use  of  coats  of  arms. 
There  are  indications  that  they  began  to 
take  definite  form  in  the  time  of  the  Cru- 
saders. As  ideas  of  art  were  developed 
fhese  insignia  became  decorative  and  were 
worn  outside  of  the  warrior's  coat  of  mail ; 
hence,  the  term,  coat  of  arms.  As  the 
aspirants  of  distinction  increased  in  num- 
ber the  symbols  became  more  and  more  in- 
dicative of  rank.  Each  follower  in  the 
royal  train,  as  he  became  the  head  of  a 
family,  conferred  upon  that  family  the 
right  to  use  his  insignia.  Thus  the  coat  of 
r.rms  became  a  family  inheritance." 

According  to  some  authorities  the  use  of 
coats  of  arms  commenced  early  in  the  mid- 
(  le  ages  and  they  were  originally  merely 
signs  or  marks  of  men  who  could  not  write. 
A  cross  or  a  star  or  a  lion  was  engraved 
jn  a  seal  and  used  to  authenticate  the  sig- 
nature which  had  been  written  by  some 
priest ;  and  it  was  painted  on  a  soldier's 
shield  that  he  might  be  known  when  in 
armor  with  the  front  of  his  helmet  closed. 
These  marks  were  not  at  first  hereditary, 
but  soon  became  so,  and  were  the  distin- 
guishing signs  of  those  of  noble  or  gentle 
birth. 

After  the  knights  became  dust  and  coats 
if  arms  were  no  longer  worn  in  battle,  the 
principal  uses  made  of  them  were  to  carve 
them  on  tombstones,  engrave  them  on  slabs 
and  plate,  paint  them  on  carriages,  or  print 
them  on  paper  to  paste  in  books  as  book- 
plates. In  the  last  mentioned  ways  there 
are  frequent  instances  of  their  use  in 
America  before  the  Revolution. 

Associated  with  the  customs  of  the  times 
vas  the  herald,  an  officer  who  rode  before 


the  king  and  bore  his  insignia,  announcing 
his  royal  presence,  and  who  on  state  oc- 
casions was  master  of  ceremonies.  Al- 
though the  care  of  the  royal  symbols  and 
the  conduct  of  ceremonies  were  only  a  part 
of  his  duties,  we  have  from  this  officer  the 
term  "heraldry."  a  relic  bequeathed  to  us 
from  the  Age  of  Chivalry. 

These  armorial  bearings  were  proofs  of 
the  wearer's  deeds  of  valor,  and  should  be 
held  by  his  descendants  as  family  insignia. 
They  once  determined  the  social  status  of 
their  owners,  and  evidences  of  family 
honor  in  days  past  should  be   cherished. 

In  the  reign  of  Richard  the  third,  about 
three  hundred  years  after  heraldic  designs 
had  begun  to  be  considered  exclusively  as 
individual  property,  the  English  govern- 
ment assumed  control  of  the  rights  con- 
cerning coats  of  arms  to  avoid  disputes 
over  their  use,  and  organized  a  College  of 
Arms  in  1483.  This  college  contains  over 
three  thousand  manuscript  volumes  besides 
an  antiquarian  library  of  priceless  value. 
The  officers  are  continually  adding  to  the 
lineages  there  placed  on  record.  It  is  their 
duty  to  trace  coats  of  arms,  confirm  titles 
to  honor,  and  examine  the  claims  of  Eng- 
lish subjects  to  armorial  rights.  Coats  of 
arms  are  conferred  for  meritorious  service 
and  granted  to  those  who  prove  eligible 
descent.  One  entitled  to  bear  arms  is  an 
armiger.  the  right  being  either  earned  orig- 
inally or  inherited.  To  be  inherited,  the 
coat  of  arms  must  have  descended  from  an 
armiger  in  the  male  line  bearing  the  fam- 
ily name,  and  subject  to  modification  from 
generation  to  generation.  A  woman's  right 
is  always  inherited. 

A  coat  of  arms  comprises  the  escutcheon 
and  accessories.  The  escutcheon  of  a  man 
is  shield-shaped;  that  of  a  woman,  lozenge- 
shaped.  The  surface  of  an  escutcheon 
within  its  border  is  called  the  field,  and 
the  designs  placed  within  the  field  are 
called  charges.  Combining:  the  representa- 
tions of  two  shields  on  one  shield  according 
to  rules  of  heraldry  is  marshalling.  De- 
scribing armorial  insigmia  in  the  language 
of  heraldrv  is  called  blazoning. 

In  heraldry  a  clear  distinction  must  be 
made  between  the  rights  of  men  and  wo- 
men. The  word  "heiress"  is  used  in  her- 
aldry, but  not  with  its  ordinary  meaning. 
It  has  no  reference  to  estates  or  property 
other  than  the  coat  of  arms.     As  respects 


22 


the  transmission  of  coat  armor,  there  are 
two  classes  of  women:  First,  heiress  and 
co-heiresses ;  second,  non-heiresses.  An 
heiress  is  either  an  only  child  or  a  survivor 
of  her  brothers  and  sisters  and  their  de- 
scendants. A  co-heiress  is  one  of  two  or 
more  daughters,  there  being  neither  sons 
nor  descendants  of  sons.  Co-heiresses  in- 
herit equally.  On  the  marriage  of  a  sole 
or  co-heiress  her  coat  of  arms  is  impaled 
during  the  life  of  her  father,  but  on  his 
death,  if  he  leaves  no  son,  her  coat  of  arms 
can  be  marshalled  with  that  of  her  husband 
by  an  "escutcheon  of  pretense,"  or  "ines- 
cutcheoned,"  and  is  hereditary.  A  woman 
does  not  inherit  the  crest,  and  only  a  queen 
or  peeress  may  inherit  supporters.  The 
coat  of  arms  of  a  non-heiress  is  impaled  at 
her  marriage,  and  is  not  hereditary.  In 
other  words,  the  right  to  bear  her  family 
arms  becomes  extinct  at  her  marriage,  be- 
ing continued  in  the  male  line.  She  be- 
comes heiress  if  she  survives  her  brothers 
and  their  descendants,  and  assumes  her 
family  arms. 

An  armiger  transmits  his  rights  to  all 
his  children.  An  heiress  transmits  her 
rights  only  through  her  husband  as  ex- 
plained before. 

Sons  inherit  their  fathers'  arms  not' 
equally,  but  by  law  of  cadency,  that  is, 
each  has  added  to  his  inherited  arms  a  par- 
ticular token  indicating  his  order  among 
the  sons  from  the  oldest  to  the  youngest. 
On  the  death  of  the  father  the  oldest  son 
drops  his  mark  of  cadency  to  be  taken  up 
by  his  eldest  son,  and  he  assumes  his  fa- 
ther's insignia. 

There  are  three  ways  in  which  an  hered- 
itary coat  of  arms  may  be  modified ;  first, 
by  adding  a  shield  of  pretense ;  second,  by 
a  process  known  as  quartering;  third,  by 
changing  the  label  as  inherited  by  sons. 

The  right  to  coat-armor  must  descend  in 
the  male  line  or  not  at  all.  If  the  ancestors 
in  the  male  line  were  not  armigers,  the  an- 
cestral heiress  could  not  transmit  their 
rights  beyond  the  marriage  with  a  non- 
armiger. 

If  an  ancestor  of  yours  was  awarded  a 
coat  of  arms  for  any  worthy  act  for  his 
king  or  country,  you  have  a  perfect  right 
to  be  proud  to  know  it,  and  to  keep  a  copy 
of  it  among  your  family  relics  or  to  hang 
upon  your  walls,  but  not  to  use  it  as  private 
insignia  on  your  stationery,  plate,  etc.,  un- 


less you  are  an  heir  to  same  as  explained. 
It  is  not  to  be  supposed  though  that  be-i 
cause  your  ancestors  did  not  possess  arms,1 
it  is  any  indication  of  inferiority  of  family.) 
Some  of  the  finest  old  families  of  the  Eng- 
lish nobility  did  not  possess  arms,  so  their 
American  descendants,  of  course,  inherited 
none.

AN  ANCIENT   CERTIFICATE. 

CONTRIBUTED  BY   MRS.    JAMES  FISHER,    REED- 
VILLE,  VA. 

To  Friends  and  Brethren  in  Pennsylvania, 

in  America  : 

Dear  and  well  beloved  brethren  and  sis- 
ters in  the  holy  union  of  Divine  love:  We 
dearly  salute  you  all — earnestly  desiring 
that  grace,  mercy,  and  peace,  true  love,  and 
patience  from  God,  our  heavenly  Father, 
and  Jesus  Christ,  the  true  Light,  may  be 
daily  added  to,  and  increased  among  you 
all,  Amen.  These  may  acquaint  you  that 
our  dear  and  ancient  Friends.  James  Clay- 
pole,  and  Helena,  his  wife,  have  laid  be- 
fore us  their  intentions  of  transporting 
themselves  with  several  of  their  children, 
viz..  Mary,  Helena.  Priscilla.  James.  Na- 
thaniel, George  and  Joseph,  into  Pennsyl- 
iiia.  in  America,  and  desired  from  us  a 
certificate  according  to  the  good  order  used 
amongst  us  in  such  cases. 

These  are,  therefore,  to  certify  concern- 
ing the  said  James  Claypole  and  Helena, 
his  wife,  that  they  have  walked  with  ns 
in  the  love  and  fellowship  of  the  gospel  for 
many  years  past,  and  have  approved  them- 
selves in  diligence  and  faithfulness  in  their 
testimony  to  the  Truth  in  and  through  all 
the  sufferings  and  trials  that  have  come 
upon  us.  and  attend  us  at  this  day.  And 
in  all  other  services  of  truth  they  have 
freely  given  up  themselves  according  to 
the  gift  of  God  and  ability  given  them,  and 
have  constantly  freq  lented  our  six  weeks' 
meetings,  men's  and  women's  meetings, 
and  any  other  services  that  Truth  hath 
called  them  unto — as  many  of  you  can  tes- 
tify on  their  behalf.  So  we  hope  and  de- 
sire you  will  receive  them  in  the  same  love 
and  tenderness  in  which  they  parted  from 
us;  that  the  blessings  of  God  Almighty 
may  rest  upon  you  and  them,  and  we  may 
have    true    unity   and    fellowship   in    God's 


Holy    Spirit   with    you,   though   absent    in 
body. 

And  whereas,  their  three  daughters, 
above  named,  are  grown  and  growing  up 
to  women's  estate,  and  if  it  should  please 
God  that  they  should  alter  their  conditions 
and  marry  in  your  country,  to  prevent  fur- 
ther trouble  of  sending  here  for  certifi- 
cates, we  have  enquired,  and  examined 
them  severally,  and  do  find  that  they  are 
clear  from  all  engagements  unto  person, 
or  persons  here,  and  their  conversation,  in- 
nocent, so  far  as  we  know.  So,  desiring 
that  the  Lord  may  preserve  them  in  unity 
with  Himself  and  His  faithful  people,  that 
His  blessings  and  sweet  presence  may  at- 
tend them  and  theirs  forever.  We  rest, 
dear  Friends  and  brethren,  in  the  love  and 
fellowship  of  the  gospel  of  peace. 

From  our  monthly  meeting  at  the  "Bull 
and  Mouth,"  in  the  city  of  London,  the 
1 1  tli  of  the  second  month,  1683.

CALDWELL. 

THE  DE  COVILLE  FAMILY  OF  FRANCE,  CAULD- 
1  WELL  FAMILY  OF  SCOTLAND THEIR  ENG- 
LISH,    IRISH     AND     AMERICAN     DESCENT 

THE    ORIGIN    OF    THE    FAMILY    AND    THEIR 
COAT   OF    ARMS. 

(Copyright,    1913.) 
(Ey   Mrs.   Leonora   Caldwell    Benson    Hill.) 

Among  the  family  names  rich  in  honora- 
ble history  in  the  old  world  and  the  United 
States  is  that  of  Caldwell.  The  original 
Huguenot  name  was  de  Coville,  which  by 
changing  of  country  and  lapse  of  time  and 
pronunciation  has  developed  into  Covil, 
Colvin,  Colwell,  Calwel,  Cawlwell,  Cauld- 
well,  Caldwell.  Many  of  the  later  emi- 
grants settled  on  the  spelling  as  Caldwell. 

History  tell  us  that  in  the  year  496  Clo- 
vis,  the  first  King  of  France,  while  fighting 
the  battle  of  Tolbiac,  was  about  to  be  de- 
feated by  a  German  tribe.  He  called  upon 
his  chieftains  to  break  the  ranks  of  the 
enemy,  saying  he  would  make  a  leader  of 
the  man  who  accomplished  this.  The  man 
who  did  break  the  ranks  bore  a  roebuck 
on  his  shield  as  the  insignia  of  his  rank, 
md  on  the  field  Clovis  called  for  the  man, 
examined  his  shield  and  placed  a  star  on 
the  forehead  of  the  roebuck  and 
made  him  a  leader.  Xo  other  family 
can  be  found  with  a  roebuck  and  star  as  a 
crest  or  on  a  coat  of  arms.  A  parchment 
of  the  bestowal  of  these  arms  are  among 
the  oldest  to  be  found,  even  before  an  of- 
fice on  heraldry  was  established  by  France. 
This  parchment  is  today  in  the  Cathedral 
of  Cologne,  Germany.  We  trace  these  arms 
in  part  to  many,  many  families  of  England, 
Ireland,  and   Scotland. 

DE    COVILLE — ENGLAND. 

The  surname  of  Covill  is  originally  from 
France,  this  family  having  come  from  Nor- 
mandy to  England  with  William  the  Con- 
queror, in  1066,  and  to  Scotland  with  King 
David  I,  who  succeeded  to  the  crown  in 
'124.     The  first  of  this  noble  family  regu- 


larly on  record  is  Philip  de  Covill,  who 
flourished  in  the  reigns  of  King  Malcolm 
IV  and  King  William  the  Lion.  In  a  con- 
vention with  King  Henry  of  England  about 
King  William's  liberty,  Philip  de  Covill  is 
named  one  of  the  hostages  for  the  King  of 
Scotland  together  with  David  (the  King's 
brother),  Earl  Duncan,  Earl  Waldare,  Earl 
of  Angus,  Richard  de  Morville  (constable) 
and  many  others  of  the  chief  nobility,  in 
1 174,  which  sufficiently  shows  that  this 
Philip  was  a  man  of  the  first  rank  in  the 
reign  of  King  William.  He  died  between 
1 180  and  1 190,  leaving  issue  a  son,  Thomas 
de  Covill,  who  succeeded  him,  was  suspect- 
ed to  have  been  concerned  in  a  conspiracy 
against  King  William  and  was  imprisoned 
in  the  Castle  of  Edinburgh,  in  1210;  but, 
having  proved  his  innocence,  he  was  liber- 
ated about  six  months  after,  and  was  soon 
again  received  into  favor.  He  died  in 
1 2 19,  leaving  issue  by  Amabilis,  his  wife, 
a  son  and  successor,  William  de  Covill, 
who  was  proprietor  of  the  barony  of  Kin- 
naird,  in  the  Shire  of  Stirling.  He  gave 
a  part  of  these  lands  to  the  Abbot  and  Con- 
vent of  Holyrood  House,  which  grant  was 
confirmed  by  King  Alexander  II,  at  Edin- 
burgh, September  15,  1229.  He  died  be- 
fore the  year  1250  and  was  succeeded  by 
his  son.  Sir  John  Covill,  who  was  proprie- 
tor of  the  lands  of  Oxnam  and  Ochiltree  in 
the  beginning  of  the  reign  of  King  Alexan- 
der III,  in  1250.  He  left  issue  two  sons, 
Thomas  and  Adam,  and  was  succeeded  by 
his  eldest  son,  Sir  Thomas  Covill,  who 
swore  allegiance  to  King  Edward  I,  when 
he  had  overrun  Scotland.  He  left 
issue  two  sons,  Robert  and  William.  He 
died  before  1324  and  was  succeeded  by  his 
eldest  son,  Robert  de  Covill,  who  was  suc- 
ceeded by  his  son,  Sir  Thomas  Covill,  who 
married  and  left  issue  a  son,  Sir  Robert 
Colvill,  who  succeeded  him.  He  it  was 
who  was  one  of  the  hostages  of  King 
James    I    ransom,    1424.     He  married   his 


26 

cousin,  Margaret  Colvill,  by  whom  he  had 
a  son  and  successor.  Sir  Robert  Colvill, 
who  by  his  wife.  Christian,  daughter  of  Sir 
Robert  Crichton,  of  Sanquhar,  ancestor 
of  the  Earl  of  Dumfries,  left  issue  two

ceeded to  Carthagena.  he  was  present  at  the

Soon  after  he  returned  to  England,  a 
Lieutenant  in  the  Hampton  Court,  a  vessel 
of  70  guns.  Shortly  after  sailing  for  the 
Mediterranean  and  joined  the  fleet  under

terward his  lordship  commanded  the  Nor- 
thumberland, a  guard-ship,  at  Plymouth, 
which  he  retained  until  peace  of  1703.  At 
the  breaking  out  of  the  war  with  France, 
in  1755  he  sailed  for  America;  was  at  the 
blockade  of  Louisburgh,  1757,  and  was  left 
command  of  the  ships  in  North  America 
with    a   broad   pennant,    in   the    winter,    in

was  for  the  second  time  left  commander 
in  North  America.  His  lordship  command- 
ed the  squadron  sent  to  the  relief  of  Quebec, 
then  besieged  by  the  French  whom  he  found 
(upon  his  arrival  there)  May  18,  1760,  had 
made  a  precipitate  retreat,  on  the  informa- 
tion of  the  near  approach  of  a  British  squad- 
ron— a  circumstance  quite  unexpected,  as  it 
was  never  known  that  any  ship  of  war  had 
ever  navigated  the  St.  Lawrence  so  high 
at  such  an  early  season  of  the  year.  About 
two  years  after  this,  his  lordship  concluded 
his  command,  for  that  time  in  North  Amer- 
ica, by  an  expedition  from  Halifax,  to  drive 
the  French  out  of  Newfoundland,  which 
they  had  possession  of  by  surprise.  That 
object  being  happily  accomplished  and  that 
important  island  again  in  the  hands  of  the 
English,  he  came  back  to  England,  and  was 
appointed  Rear-admiral  of  the  white,  Oct. 
21,  1762  His  lordship  was  destined  for  the 
command  in  the  Mediterranean,  but  the  pre- 
liminaties  of  peace  being  signed,  prevented 
it.  He  therefore  continued  with  his  flag 
flying  at  Spithead.  and  doing  the  duty  ov 
port-Admiral  at  Portsmouth,  till  the  conclu 
sion  of  the  peace,  when  he  was  appointed  to 
take  the  same  station  at  Plymouth,  where 
he  was  but  a  short  time  before  he  was  earn- 
estly solicited  by  Lord  Sandwich,  (then  first 
lord  of  the  admiralty.)  to  resume  the  com- 
mand in  North  America,  assuring  him  it 
was  his  Majesty's  particular  wish  that  he 
should  do  so.  His  lordship  accordingly 
made  choice  of  the  Romney  a  fine  new  ship 
of  fifty  guns,  hoisted  his  flag  on  board  and 
proceeded  to  Halifax.  Arrived  there,  his 
first  care,  in  consequence  of  his  instructions, 
was  to  see  that  the  French  punctually  ful- 
filled their  engagements,  by  the  cessions  of 
those  places  agreed  upon  by  the  articles  of 
the  treaty  of  peace;  in  appointing  stations, 
and  regulating  the  cruises  of  the  numerous 
vessels  then  in  his  extensive  command,  and 
in  attending  to  the  completion  of  the  naval 
arsenal  at  Halifax,  at  the  commencement 
of  which  he  had  borne  a  part  thirteen  years 
l>efore.  At  the  expiration  of  tlie  term  al- 
lotted for  the  station  he  returned  to  Eng- 
land, and  struck  his  flag  at  Plymouth,  in 
.the  year  1766.  Here  ended  his  lordship's 
naval  career,  after  a  service  of  thirty-five 
vears,  in  which  although  not  so  fortunate  in 
meeting  with  opportunities  of  distinguish- 
ing himself  in  brilliant  actions  as  manv  ill 


his  line  had  been,  yet  in  the  duties  of  a  skill- 
ful officer  and  judicious  commander,  in  the 
rigid,  and  conscientious  application  of  the 
public  money,  and  disregard  to  his  own  per- 
sonal emolument,  in  an  ardent  zeal  for  the 
good  of  his  country,  and  in  an  indefatigable 
application  to  business  when  his  profession 
required  it ;  in  these  essentials  he  may  have 
been  equaled  by  many,  but  certainly  sur- 
passed by  none;  His  lordship  retired  to 
Scotland  in  1768,  and  in  the  same  year  in 
the  month  of  October  married  Lady  Eliza- 
beth, daughter  of  the  sixth  Earl  of  Kellie, 
and  widow  of  Walter  Macfarlane,  of  Mac- 
farlane,  Esqr.,  by  whom  his  lordship  had 
no  issue,  and  who  dies  at  Drumshaugh,

1769,  and  died  at  Drumshaugh,  near  Edin- 
burgh, May  21,  1770.  in  the  53th  year  of  his 
age  ;  and  was  succeeded  by  his  brother,  Lord

r'oss,  son  of  the  third  lord,  born  Jan.  24,

he  returned  to  England  the  beginning  of 
1743.  In  1744,  he  was  appointed  first-lieut.

Capt-lieut.  and  the  following  year  was  pro- 
moted to  a  company.  In  August,  1759,  the 
Royal  North  Britain  Fusileers  were  recalled 
to  England,  and  sent  on  an  expedition ;  in 
1,761,  besieged  and  took  the  citadel  of  Pa- 
lais, and  reduced  the  island  of  Belleisle, 
During  a  general  and  apparently  lasting 
I  'eace,  he  retired  from  the  army,  in  the  year 
1  "04,  after  a  service  of  twenty-four  years; 
was  inspector-general  of  the  outports  in

THE  SCOTTS  OF  BUCCLEXCH  COL- 
YILLE  (COLWELE). 
Xo.  372  Charter  by  Thomas  deColeville 
surname  Scot,  to  the  Abbey  of  Yandey,  in 
Lincolnshire,  of  the  quarter  of  Almelidun 
called   Keresban    (1 214-1223).

2  Original  charter  in  Melrose  Collection.

True  Origin  of  the  surname  of  Scott. 

The  surname  of  Scot  or  Scott,  which  is 
obviously  derived  from  the  nationality  of 
those  who  bore  it,  is  certainly  of  high  an- 
tiquity, but  it  is  difficult  to  determine  at 
what  time  it  became  fixed  in  one  or  more 
families.  There  are  cases  in  which  the 
name  of  "Scotus"  is  used  in  charters  and  a 
different  territorial  designation  afterwards 
adopted  as  a  family  surname.  A  charter 
for  instance,  was  granted  by  King  William 
the  Lion  between  the  years  1165  and  1214 


of  the  lands  of  Allardyce,  in  the  county  of 
Kincardine.  The  grantee  in  the  Charter  la 
named  "Walterus  Scotus"  and  it  has  been 
conjectured  that  the  name  of  Scot  was 
abandoned,  the  more  definite  one  of  Allar- 
dyce being  adopted  by  his  successors  from 
the  land  in  their  possessions.  The  father  of 
this  Walterus  Scotus  bore  the  same  name  as 
his  son,  and  appears  frequently  in  the  Car- 
tulary of  Arbroath  during  the  reign  of  King 
William.  Pie  must  have  been  a  man  of 
some  importance,  as  he  is  always  presented 
either  as  a  witness  or  a  "perambulator"  of 
marches,  in  the  company  of  men  of  high 
rank;  indeed,  in  a  charter  by  Richard  de 
Frinill,  of  a  piece  of  land  by  the  stream  of 
Bervie  to  the  Abbey  of  Arbroath,  then 
newly  founded  by  King  William,  chiefly  in 
supervising  the  allotment  of  lands  gifted  by 
the  wealthier  landowners  of  the  Mearns.  It 
would  be  rash  to  say  that  his  descendants 
one  and  all.  adopted  the  name  of  Allardycer 
that  in  one  of  the  Arbroath  charters  he  i5 
not  designated  by  the  indefinite  adjectival 
surname  of  Scotus,  but  as  Walterus  Scott, 
as  if  the  appellation  had  then  become  a  rec- 
ognized and  fixed  surname. 

The  appellation,  however,  was  borne  in 
those  early  times  by  persons  of  princely 
rank.  David  Eari  of  LIuntington,  brother 
of  King  William  the  Lion,  has  a  son  who 
bore  the  title  of  Earl  of  Huntington  and 
the  name  of  John  Scot.  On  the  30th  of 
May  1223,  this  prince  of  the  blood  was  along 
with  many  other  nobles  invested  with  the 
dignity  of  Knight-hood  in  the  Castle  of 
Roxburgh ;  by  his  cousin,  King  Alexander, 
the  second;  and  on  the  death  of  his  grand- 
father, Ranulf  Earl  of  Chester,  in  1232,  he 
succeeded  to  this  other  honor  and  power. 
A  few  years  before  his  elevation  to  the  lat- 
ter dignity  he  had  married  a  daughter  of 
Llewellyn  King  of  Wales,  who  died  in  the 
year  1249.  Another  striking  example  of 
the  wide  use  of  the  "cognomentum"  of  Scot 
is  found  in  one  of  the  charters  of  the  Abbey 
of  Melrose  when  the  appellation  is  assumud 
by  Thomas  de  Colevill.a  man  of  cons'derable 
note  in  the  reign  of  King  William  the  Liofi. 
His  name  occurs  in  many  charters  of  thejt 
date,  but  nowhere  again  with  the  designal- 
tion  he  has  taken  to  himself  in  the  one  we 
have  mentioned.  Under  the  name  of 
"Thomas  de  Colevilla  cognomento  Scot"  1  /■ 
grants  the  name  of  Keresban,  on  the  Dootji 
in  Ayrshire,  to  the  Abbery  of  Yandey  im 
Lincolnshire.     The  witnesses  to  the  charteA 


bear  names  of  alarming  Celtic  uncouthness, 
and  it  is  scarcely  to  be  wondered  at  that  in 
the  year  1223  the  convent  of  Vandey  found 
it  dangerous  to  possess  property  in  a  district 
subject  to  such  commotions  as  were  then 
frequent  in  Galloway,  and  parted  with  the 
gift  of  Thomas  de'Colevill  to  the  Abbey 
cf  Melrose.  Thomas  had  died  before  this 
alienation,  as  he  is  there  spoken  of  as  "of 
happy  memory."  How  he  had  obtained  the 
name  we  can  only  conjecture,  but  it  is  far 
from  being  improbable  that  he  had  accom- 
panied William  the  Lion  in  his  unfortunate 
expedition  into  England,  and  had  lingered 
there  during  the  royal  captivity,  because  he 
afterwards  constantly  appears  as  an  attend- 
ant on  the  Court  of  William.  A  seal  con- 
taining a  classic  head  which  contrasts  ar- 
tistically with  the  rude  designs  of  contem- 
porary Scottish  art,  is  subjoined.  The  bor- 
der bears  the  inscription  "Sigill.  Thomas 
De  Collevilla  Scotti." 


COLVILE  OF  DUFFIELD. 

This  is  an  ancient  Cambrigeshire  family 
and  can  be  traced  to  the  time  of  Henry  I. 
The  Colviles,  Karons  of  Culross,  are  de- 
scended from  a  younger  brother  of  the  sec- 
ond progenitor  of  the  family. 

The  manor  of  Newton-Colvile,  held  un- 
der the  Bishop  of  Ely,  continued  in  the  Col- 
viles from  a  period  extending  nearly  from 
trie  Conquest  to  the  vear  1792,  when  it  was 
sold,  and  the  representative  of  this  family, 
-Mr  Charles  Colvile,  settled  in  Derbyshire  in 
consequence  of  his  marriage  with  Miss  Bon- 
nel.  of  Duffield.  See  Lyson's  Cambridge-

NOTES  AND  OBSERVATIONS  ON  SOME  RE- 
MARKABLE EVENTS  AND  CIRCUMSTANCES 
CHIEFLY  RELATING  TO  THE  TIME  OF  THE 
AMERICAN  REVOLUTION,  EXTRACTED  FROM 
THE  WRITINGS  OF  A  QUAKER  OR  FRIEND, 
WHO  RESIDED  IN  NEW  JERSEY.  CONTRIB- 
UTED BY  MRS.  JAMES  CLARK  FISHER, 
REEDVILLE,    VIRGINIA. 

"Now,  when  these  times  of  great  commo- 
tion came  on  fast  I  remembered  the  privi- 
leges and  blessings  we  enjoyed  in  days 
passed,  the  peace  and  plenty  we  were  fa- 
vored with,  and  the  government  we  had 
lived  under ;  but  now  all  civil  government 
seemed  to  be  broken  up  by  the  spirit  of  con- 
fusion ;  all  trade  and  carrying  on  business 
was  very  much  marred.  Nothing  but  wast- 
ing and  destruction  appeared,  and  the  way 
of  peace  was  too  little  known.  In  the  days 
of  great  prosperity  I  often  thought  people 


32 

made  too  much  ado  on  every  trifling  oc- 
casion when  we  visited  one  another  at  rais- 
ing of  buildings,  and  especially  at  wed- 
dings. Oh.  the  feastings  and  drinkings  and 
excess  which  people  did  run  into.  I  often 
thought  the  time  might  come  when  we 
should  have  to  think  of  these  things. 

In  Jeremiah  vii:i8  it  is  said:  'The  chil- 
dren gather  wood  and  the  fathers  kindle 
the  fire  and  the  women  knead  dough  to 
make  cakes  to  the  queen  of  heaven,  and 
to  pour  out  drink — offerings  unto  other 
gods,  that  they  may  provoke  me  to  anger. 
Do  they  not  provoke  themselves  to  the  con- 
fusion of  their  own  faces?" 

"1776.  We  had  heard  much  of  the  ca- 
lamities of  war  in  Xew  England  and  there 
away.  This  spring  there  was  great  noise 
and  confusion  about  going  to  learn  war 
all  over  our  neighborhood.  A  company  01 
men  at  Elsinborough  went  to  exercise  and 
one  of  their  guns  being  loaded  ( he  that 
had  it,  not  knowing  it)  it  went  off  in  his 
hand  and  shot  the  load  through  another 
man  that  had  a  family.  Another  company 
met  together  at  Woodbury  and.  falling  out 
concerning  going  to  the  wars,  one  struck 
another  with  his  fist  several  times  and 
killed  him  dead.  This  spring  I  took  par- 
ticular notice  of  two  lads  at  our  meetings, 
whose  dress  seemed  to  bespeak  them  dis- 
posed for  war.  One  of  them,  soon  after, 
was  at  Key's  Mill  and  there  got  to  fighting 
with  one  of  the  neighbour's  boys,  who 
pulled  him  down  stairs  and  he  was  killed. 
The  other  went  to  camp  this  summer  at 
York.  He  being  caught  several  times 
asleep  on  his  guard,  news  came  to  his  par- 
ents that  he  was  to  suffer  death  for  it. 
which  threw  them  into  very  great  trouble, 
but  he  was  pardoned  and  came  home  a  few 
weeks  afterwards,  so  poorly  he  could  hard- 
ly keep  about. 

"Early  this  spring  there  was  a  meeting 
of  conference  held  at  our  meeting  house, 
for  the  strengthening  of  Friends  in  the 
times  of  commotion.  Mark  Reeves  was 
there  and  had  a  great  deal  to  say.  Han- 
nah Foster  also  spoke  seemingly  with  a 
deep  and  true  concern. 

"9  month,  177(1  Xow,  did  troubles  and 
confusion  much  increase — Friends  having 
their  goods  taken  from  them  for  not  con- 
tributing to  the  support  of  war.  This  fall 
there  was  a  great  rumour  of  war,  and  a 
very  great  stop  to  business,  both  in  town 
and  country."

THE  MELTIXG  POT. 

One  of  his  great-grandfathers  came 

From  somewhere  down  along  the  Rhine : 
O'Brien  was  his  mother's  name. 

Sprung  from  proud  Erin's  royal  line. 

1 
The   blood  of  many  a  Scottish  laird 

And  English  noble  coursed  his  veins  ; 
Once  one  of  his  forefathers  fared  1 

Forth  from  where  young  Alfonso  reigns. 

He  claimed  the  blood  of  vikings,  too, 
And  traced  his  ancestry  to  France : 

For  ten  a  week  he  bottled  glue. 

And  he  was  glad  to  get  the  chance.

THE     MUHLENBERG     FAMILY    OF 
PENNSYLVANIA. 


Escutcheon :  Sable,  a  lion  rampant  or, 
grasping  in  the  dexter  paw  a  sword  proper, 
and  in  the  sinister  a  wheel  argent. 

Crest :     A  demi  lion  as  in  the  arms. 


Historical  Data : — Genealogical  and  her- 
aldic works  on  the  ancient  noble  families  of 
Germany  state  that  the  von  Muhlenbergs 
were  recognized  in  times  of  before  the 
Thirty  Years  War  (1618-1648)  as  among 
the  old  baronial  families  of  the  Empire ; 
that  they  derive  their  origin  from  Ziracka, 
a  prince  of  the  Wendish  and  Sorbic  tribes ; 
that,  about  the  year  950  A.  D.,  he  was  con- 
verted to  Christianity ;  that  he  had  his  resi- 
dence near  the  present  Muhlberg,  on  the 
right  bank  of  the  Elbe  River  in  the  Merse- 
burg  district  of  Prussian  Saxony.  Mills 
(nnihlen  in  German)  erected  in  that  local- 
ity, gave  name  to  the  town,  and  subsequently 
also  to  the  family  reigning  there,  which  in- 
creased and,  in  the  course  of  time,  acquired 
large  possessions  in  Saxony,  Austrian  Si- 
lesia and  other  parts.  Various  members  of 
the  family  made  themselves  eminent  in  war 
and  peace,  and  in  the  beginning  of  the  six- 
teenth century  the  family  is  still  counted 
among  the  prominent  and  wealthy  nobility. 
But  during  the  wars  of  the  sixteenth  cen- 
tury, and  especially  the  Thirty  Years  War, 
some  of  its  branches  died  out,  and  others 
were,  like  many  noble  families,  greatly  re- 
duced in  circumstances.  After  the  middle 
of  the  seventeenth  century  the  name  is  no 
longer  found  on  the  roll  of  the  nobles  of  the 
empire,  and  the  family  never  made  any  at- 
tempt to  have  their  title  acknowledged  and 
restored  by  the  imperial  court  of  heraldry. 

The  Family  in  America — It  has  been  said, 
by  a  well  known  writer,  that  the  Muhlen- 
berg family  is  "a  family  of  Pennsylvania 
Germans  which  has  contributed  to  our 
country  as  many  men  of  prominence  and 
distinction  as  any  other  family  in  any  part 
of  the  United  States."  It  is  now  proposed 
to  make  mention,  briefly,  of  some  of  those 


who,  either  as  direct  descendants  or  as  con- 
nections by  marriage,  have  justified  the  as- 
sertion thus  made. 

The  progenitor  of  the  American  branch 
of  the  Muhlenberg  family  was 

Henry  Melchoir  Muhlenberg,  D.  D., 
b.  September  6,  171 1;  d.  October  7,  1787; 
m.  April  22,  1745,  Anna  Maria  Weiser,  b. 
June  24,  1727;  d.  August  23,  1802,  daugh- 
ter of  Colonel  Conrad  Weiser,  and  wife  Eve 
Anna  Feck. 

John  Conrad  Weiser,  better  known  as 
Conrad  Weiser,  (Muhlenberg's  father-in- 
law)  b.  Wurtemberg,  Germany,  Nov.  2, 
1696;  d.  July  13,  1760;  m.  1720.  Anna  Eve 
Feck,  b.  Jan.  25,  1700;  d.  Dec.  27,  1778; 
(daughter  of  Peter  Feck.)  He  was  a  Jus- 
tice of  the  Peace  for  many  years,  from 
1741 ;  first  Judge  of  the  Courts  of  Berks 
Co.,  Pa.,  and  President  Judge  from  1752 
until  his  death;  from  1732  until  his  death 
the  officially  recognized  interpreter  of  Penn- 
sylvania and  head  of  its  Indian  Bureau,  ren- 
dering invaluable  service  of  great  and  far- 
reaching  moment  in  that  capacity ;  on  Oct. 
31,  1755,  commissioned  as  Lieut.  Col.  by 
Gov.  Morris,  placed  in  command  of  the 
First  Regiment  of  Provincial  troops  and 
given  charge  of  the  important  defences 
along  the  frontier  of  the  Blue  Range  where 
he  served  during  the  French  and  Indian 
War. 

Henry  Melchoir  Muhlenberg  was  the 
most  eminent  among  the  founders  of  the 
Lutheran  church  in  this  country,  and  was 
generally  known  as  the  "Patriarch"  by  those 
who  have  always  regarded  him  as  its  real 
founder. 

He  was  born  at  Eimback,  Hanover,  Ger- 
many, where  he  received  a  thorough  classi- 
cal education  from  his  seventh  to  twelfth 
year;  1723-24  he  continued  his  studies  at  the 
classical  school  of  Zellerfeld,  east  of  Eim- 
beck ;  in  1735  entered  the  University  of  Gbt- 
tengen,  established  that  year,  as  one  of  its 
first  students,  graduating  in  1738;  spent 
some  time  at  the  University  of  Jena ;  had  as 
his  friends  and  associates  Herr  von  Mun- 
chausen, high  sheriff  of  Hanover,  the  Count 


42 

of  Wernigerode,  the  Counts  of  Reuss  of 
Koestritz  and  Henkel  of  Poeltzig,  the  Bar- 
oness von  Gersdorf,  Baron  Charles  G.  von 
Burgsdorf,  Baron  von  Braun,  the  Rev. 
Prof.  Oporin,  D.  D.,  of  Gottingen,  Coun- 
cillor Cellanus  and  Gotthief  August 
Francke  of  Halle,  and  many  other  men  of 
eminence. 

At  the  suggestion  of  the  Rev.  Dr. 
Francke  he  decided  on  Sept.  6,  1741,  to  ac- 
cept the  call  extended  him  by  the  authori- 
ties in  Germany  to  go  to  America  and  there 
organize  the  scattered  Lutheran  churches  in 
Pennsylvania  especially.  This  work  was 
begun  in  1742  amidst  the  many  trials  in- 
cident to  our  Colonial  period.  He  took  as 
his  motto  "Ecclesia  Plantanda"  (the  church 
must  be  planted).  How  well  this  planting 
was  done  by  this  learned  and  conscientious 
Christian  man  is  evidenced  by  the  great 
church  which  stands  as  his  monument  to- 
day. 

In  1748  he  was  given  the  degree  of  Doc- 
tor of  Divinity  by  the  University  of  Penn- 
sylvania. 

There  are  cut  these  words  in  Latin  on 
the  marble  slab  which  covers  his  remains 
outside  the  old  Augustus  Church  at  the 
Trappe,  Montgomery  County,  Pennsylva- 
nia: 

"Qualis  et  Quantus  fuerit 
non  ignorabunt  sine  lapide 
Futura  saecula." 
(Who  and  what  he  was  future  generations 
will  know  without  a  monument  of  stone.) 

He  had  the  following  surviving  children : 
John  Peter  Gabriel  Muhlenberg,  Eve  Eliza- 
beth Muhlenberg,  Frederick  Augustus  Con- 
rad Muhlenberg.  Margaretta  Henrietta 
Muhlenberg,  Gotthilf  Henry  Ernestus  Muh- 
lenberg, Mary  Catherine  Muhlenberg,  Ma- 
ria Salome  Muhlenberg.

148.  JENNINGS,  ALLEN,  VARNER, 
VARNES.  SWANSON.  Allen  Jennings, 
b.  about  1795 ;  m.  about  1820,  Cynthia 
Varnes  or  Varner,  b.  about  1800;  she  was 
the  dau.  of  Matthew  and  Susannah  (Ken- 
bv)  Varner;  think  she  had  brothers  Ed- 
ward, Marcus  and  Matthew ;  think  she  had 
sisters  Onia  and  Saphronia. 

Allen  Jennings  had  two  sons,  William 
and  Thomas.  Wm.  was  b.  1826  in  Fayette 
Co.,  Ga. ;  d.  1863  in  Civil  War;  m.  18^0,

44 

Jennings,  b.   1852;  all  of  Ga. 

Allen  Jennings  had  brothers  Robert,  Wil- 
liam and  Thomas,  and  a  sister  Susan,  mar- 
ried Thomas  Hale.  Robert  married  Eliosa 
Brown  and  settled  in  Twiggs  County,  Ga., 
where  his  children  were  born ;  Allen,  Wil- 
liam, Edward  and  several  daughters. 

Tradition  says  that  Allen  J.  was  descen- 
ded from  William  Jennings,  emigrant  to 
Virginia  in  Colonial  times,  that,  his  father 
had  an  old  fashioned  name.  Was  it  Wil- 
liam, David,  Daniel,  or  what?  Was  his 
mother  an  Allen?  Since  his  day  Allen  has 
been  a  family  name.  Tradition  says  that 
he  was  a  Revolutionary  soldier,  and  that 
he  and  his  brothers  came  from  Virginia. 
Did  his  father  remain  in  Virginia,  or  as 
seems  more  likely,  did  he  remove  to  Fayette 
County,  or  nearby,  in  Georgia?  Did  Wil- 
liam Jennings,  of  Virginia,  have  a  son. who 
married  an  Allen,  if  so,  his  name  and  hers

149-  PATMON,  POTMAN,  PATRAM, 
WEAVER.  Samuel  Weaver  married  Mary 
Patman  in  Va.,  and  about  1800  they  re- 
moved to  Campbell  Co.  Ga.,  near  Palmet- 
to. Mary  had  three  brothers,  David,  Jack- 
son and  Watson  Patman.  Spelling  is  un- 
known, no  written  record  of  it  has  yet  been 
found.  Oldest  members  of  the  family  onlv 
have  it  as  pronounced  as  a  memory ;  might 
even  have  been  Pitman.  Samuel  and  Mary 
Weaver  had  nine  children :  Andy  (or  An- 
drew) m.  three  times,  first  to  a  Miss  Les- 
ter, of  Athens,  Ga. ;  William,  m.  Miss  Car- 
roll ;  Susan,  m.  first,  Mr.  Hines,  second,  Mr. 
Languine  ;  Nancy,  m.  Leonard  Phillips  ; 
Elizabeth,  m.  Tom  Chewes ;  Mary,  m.  Har- 
deway  Smith,  Sarah  m.  Samuel  Swanson. 
No  data  as  to  Seaborn  and  John,  the  other 
two  sons.  Mary,  b.  in  18 18,  was  probably 
the  youngest  child. 

Wanted,  correct  name  and  ancestry  of 
Mary. 

Virginia  Census  of  1790,  page  50,  Cen- 
sus of  1783,  Chesterfield  Co.,  gives  Daniel 
Patram,  7  whites,  1 1  blacks  in  household ; 
Francis  Patram,  9  whites,  2  blacks ;  George 
Patram,  11  whites.  2  blacks.  Was  Mary  of 
any  of  these  families?  Where  can  a  copy  of 
Census  of  Georgia  for  1820  be  found? — 
A.  L.  P. 

Census  of  1820  has  not  been  published. 
Congress  should  be  interested  in  publish- 
ing 1800,  1 8 10  and  others,  the  same  as  was 
done  for  the  Census  of  1790,  before  some- 


thing happens  to  destroy  these  invaluable 
records. — Ed. 

150.  HUTTON.  Moses  Hutton  was 
plaintiff  in  a  lawsuit  against  John  Newland 
in  Winchester,  Frederick  Co.,  Va.,  in  1754. 
Bought  and  sold  lands  in  Hampshire  Co., 
Va.,  1772.  Acted  under  Power  of  Attor- 
ney given  by  Caleb  Hevves,  of  Montgomery 
Co.  Pa.,  to  his  "friend"  about  1772.  Was 
appointed  by  the  General  Assembly  of  the 
State  of  Virginia,  as  one. of  the  Trustees

Virginia  militia  during  the  Revolutionary

He  died  in  Hardy  Co.,  Va.,  in  1805,  will 
probated.  Owned  much  land  and  many 
negroes. 

Traditions  conflict  as  to  whether  born  in 
America,  Wales,  England,  Scotland  or  Ire- 
land. 

Thorough  researches  in  Virginia,  Mary- 
land, Pennsylvania,  has  thus  far  failed  to 
develop  any  information  as  to  his  parentage, 
antecedents  or  birth. 

Fifty  dollars  is  offered  for  information 
leading  to  the  ancestry  of  the  above  Moses 
Hutton,  to  be  paid  by  Mr.  Kirk  Brown, 
Genealogist,  No.  1813  N.  Caroline  St.,  Bal- 
timore. Md.— W.  H.  C. 

151.  KEMPTON.  WAYNE.  MER- 
RITT, REED,  REEDE.  Samuel  Merritt 
Kempton,  1784-1853;  m.  Sarah  Ann  Reed, 
Reede,  or  Read ;  tradition  says  she  was  a 
dau.  of  a  close  friend  of  Gen.  Washington's, 
who  often  used  their  pew  in  Philadelphia — 
old  Christ  Church — and  held  little  Sarah 
Ann  on  his  lap  during  service.  Samuel  M. 
was  an  East  Indian  trader,  vessel  Rebecca 
Simms.  Tradition  says  that  he  was  a 
nephew  of  General  Anthony  Wayne  and  of 
General  Merritt;  it  is  thought  that  his 
mother  was  a  Merritt.  Samuel  M.  died 
April  14.  1853,  and  is  buried  at  Vincentown, 
New  Jersey,  beside  others  of  his  family. 

Among  the  children  of  Samuel  Merritt 
and  Sarah  Ann  (Reede)  Kempton,  were 
William,  1820-1899,  who  m.  first,  Nancv 
Butler  Singer,  May  10,  1847,  in  Cincinnati, 
Ohio;  second,  in  1862,  Mrs.  Maria  (West) 
Green,  and  had  children  by  both  marriages. 

Dr.  Thomas  Dunn,  d.  April  6,  1853 ;  m. 
Emily  Wyncoop. 

Mary  Wayne  Kempton,  who  married 
William  Carfield,  and  their  dau.  married 
Rev.  George  Elliott,  of  the  M.  E.  Church. 

Parentage  wanted  of  Samuel  and  Sarah 


Ann  Kempton.    (She  d.  1S73). 

Information  wanted  regarding  the  follow- 
ing: 

Penn.  Gazette,  March  26,  1754 :  "Seven 
Pistoles  Reward.  Sent  out  with  tin  ware 
to  sell  on  Jan.  31,  (1754)  by  the  subscriber 
living  in  Amwell.  Hunterdon  Co.,  New  Jer- 
sey, a  servant  man  named  Nicholas  God- 
dard,  who  is  since  run  away.  Had  on 
when  he  went  away  a  blue  bear  skin  coat 
with  flowered  brass  buttons,  whitish  cloth 
jacket,  buckskin  breeches,  old  tow  white 
shirt,  etc.  He  formerly  belonged  to  Isaac 
Corin,  tinner  in  Philadelphia.  All  masters 
of  vessels  are  forbid  to  carry  him  at  their 
peril. — Samuel  Kempton." 

Was  this  Samuel  Kempton  the  father  of 
the  above  Samuel  Merritt  Kempton,  or  con- 
nected in  any  manner?  Was  he  his  grand- 
father? 

The  tinware  business  points  to  a  Samuel 
Kempton  who  was  in  New  York  city  in 
1772;  married  Martha  Wilson.  This  Sam- 
uel was  a  tinplate  and  copper  smith,  and 
probably  died  between  1786  and  1790.  His 
age  is  not  known,  but  in  some  way  he  be- 
longs to  the  New  Jersey  and  Pennsylvania 
Kemptons.  Census,  1790,  contains  widow 
Martha  Kempton  and  her  family. — M.  K.  C.

ampton Co.,  Pa.,  thence  to  Wysox,  Brad-

m.  Aug.  8,  1763,  Mary  Drake,  of  Hopewell,

155.  COMFORT,  THORNE.  John 
Comfort,  of  Orange,  Ulster  Co.,  N.  Y.,  mar- 
ried Phoebe  Thome.  ( b.  about  1778,)  who 
lived  at  Newburgh.  N.  Y..  prior  to  removal 
to  Canton,  Pa.  She  m.  second,  a  Maj. 
Withoy,  who  died  1845,  m  Canton,  Pa. 

Children  of  John  and  Phoebe  (Thome) 
Comfort  were  Thorne  ;  Richard  ;  Thomas  ; 
Elizabeth,  b.  1812;  Mercy;  Jane;  Hannah, 
b.  1813;  Phoebe,  b.  1819;  and  Lucretia. 
All  married  at  Canton,  Pa.,  excepting  one, 
Phoebe,  m.  a  sea  captain  named  Jones,  and 
lived  in  Albany.  N.  Y.  She  m.  second, 
James  Watts,  of  Canton. 

This  John  Comfort  was  until  recently 
supposed  to  have  been  the  son  of  Richard 
Comfort  (Rev.  soldier),  and  wife  Charity 
Porkins,  who  died  at  Deer  Park,  N.  Y. ; 
Reasons:  first.  John  Comfort  had  brothers 
Thomas  and  Richard  and  sisters  Hannah, 
Mercy  and  Elizabeth  ;  Richard,  the  Revolu- 
tionary soldier,  had  children  of  these  names 
as  well  as  a  son  John,  second  :  mv  own  name 


46 

is  Addie,  but  my  grandmother,  a  daugh- 
etr  of  John  Comfort,  nicknamed  me  "Molly 
Porkins,"  and  always  used  to  say  "She  is 
All  Porkins."  Hence  no  doubt  existed  in 
the  family  as  to  being  descendants  of  said 
John  and  Charity  (Porkins)  Comfort,  until 
disputed  by  certain  other  records  not 
proven,  claim  that  John  Comfort,  son  of 
Richard,  the  Revolutionary  soldier,  married 
Phoebe  Gildersleeve,  and  of  course  name  an 
entirely  different  set  of  children.  This  fam- 
ily have  no  data. 

Two  other  John  Comforts  appear  in 
Montgomery,  N.  Y.,  1790  Census,  in  Ulster 
Co.,  which  is  very  near  to  Newburgh ;  both 
were  in  the  Revolution.  Want  names  of 
wives  and  children  of  both,  if  any? 

My  John  died  many  years  before  his  wife. 
Wanted,  data  as  to  any  marriages  between 
the  Comforts  and  the  Porkins  families.  Did 
one  of  the  John  Comforts  marry  a  Mary 
or  Polly  Porkins?— A.  W.  C. 

156.'  BENNETT,  TUCK.  Would  like

Jerome  Tuck,  who  came  from  England 
prior  to  the  Revolution,  and  settled  in  Hali- 
fax Co.,  Va.,  at  a  place  called  "Red  Bank," 
(a  personal  grant  to  them  from  George  III, 
of  twelve  miles  in  length).  Who  and  where 
are  their  descendants? 

157.  MINOR.  Also  wanted  the  names 
of  ancestors  of  John  Minor,  who  married  a 
Miss  Hampton,  of  Virginia,  and  settled 
near  Oxford,  N.   C. 

158.  WILKINS.  Wanted,  marriage 
and  birth  dates  of  the  Wilkins  fam.  of  Hal- 
ifax Co.  Va.,  one  of  whom  served  in  the 
war  of  1812.  One  of  the  Wilkins  married 
a  Newton,  a  direct  descendant  of  Sir  Isaac 
Newton's  fam.  One  married  a  Miss  Pier- 
son,  of  Ireland. — O.  W.  E. 

159.  WOODSON,  W ATKINS.  In  what 
country  or  counties  of  Virginia  did  Oba- 
diah  Woodson,  who  married  Constance 
Watkins  live,  and  rear  his  family? 

160.  WILSON,  GAMMON,  BROWN. 
In  what  county  of  Pennsylvania  did  Sam- 
uel Wilson  live,  whose  daughters  Mary  and 
Margaret  married  Richard  D.  Gammon 
and  Robert  Brown,  and  were  later  said  to 
have  been  disinherited.  He  had  a  son  who 
was  killed  in  the  Indian  wars  under  Gen- 
eral Wayne.  Mary  and  Margaret  were 
married  before  1794. 

161.  WORTHINGTON,  TRUITT.  $5 
will  be  given  for  the  names  of  the  parents 
or  the  former  home  of  Jacob  Worthington, 


who  was  living  in  Fleming  County,  Ky.,  in 
1800,  died  there  in  1827,  whose  first  wife 
was  named  Elanor  ,  and  his  sec- 
ond wife   Mary  Truitt. — W.  J.  G.

COAT  OF  ARMS. 


Contributed  by  Mrs.  Exxis. 
II. 

As  stated  in  my  last  article  on  heraldry, 
in  our  magazine,  some  of  the  finest  old  fam- 
ilies of  English  nobility  did  not  possess 
arms,  so  their  American  descendants,  of 
course,  inherited  none.  On  the  other  hand, 
.  coats  of  arms  are  borne  by  many  American 
families,  though  all  of  them  not  justly  so. 

Some  persons  think  the  display  of  heral- 
dic devices  contrary  to  Republicanism, 
while  on  the  other  hand  manv  learned  and 
cultured  people  who  would  not  stoop  to 
snobbishness  uphold  the  desire  in  American 
people  to  prove  their  right  to  armorial 
bearings,  as  most  commendable,  in  fact  a 
duty  we  owe  our  descendants,  though  only  a 
small  percentage  of  those  who  are  enthusi- 
asts on  the  subject,  go  so  far  as  to  display 


these  bearings  on  their  stationery,  silver, 
carriages,  etc.,  being  satisfied  with  a  mod- 
estly framed  painting  or  engraving  of  their 
armoral  bearings  to  hang  upon  a  hall  or  a 
library  wall.  A  family  which  has  estab- 
lished its  connection  with  a  family  of  an  old 
country  having  such  right,  would  be  fully 
justified  in  displaying  its  Coat  of  Arms  thus, 
being  sufficient  for  us  as  Americans,  having 
done  away  with  the  right  of  primogeni- 
ture. 

However,  in  order  not  to  be  a  laughing- 
stock to  those  who  know  the  meaning  of 
heraldic  devices  we  should  use  them  ad- 
visedly. 

Some  may  claim  that  this  Is  a  free  coun- 
try and  that  one  may  do  as  he  pleases,  with 
his  Coat  of  Arms,  but  it  is  a  matter  of 
taste  as  well  as  a  question  of  "right,"  for 
in  saving  one  has  a  "right"  to  bear  coat- 
armor,  the  "right"  according  to  the  laws  of 
the  Herald's  College  of  Great  Britain,  is 
not  meant,  for  but  few  families  in  this  coun- 
try could  possibly  have  that  right. 

With  us  the  bearing  of  coat  armor  is  in- 
tended merely  to  indicate  our  membership 
in  a  certain  family,  and  not  as  in  the  old 
country,  proving  the  bearer  to  be  the  rec- 
ognized head  of  the  family. 

Heraldry  is  no  longer  a  necessity  as  it 
was  was  in  ancient  times,  but  those  who 
care  to  display  armorials,  should  be  careful 
that  such  representations  should  be  made 
according  to  the  rules  of  heraldry,  to  be 
of  any  value,  therefore,  I  shall  endeavor  to 
give  you  some  of  its  rules  and  terms  which 
will  enable  you  to  better  understand  this 
art.  if  such  you  may  be  pleased  to  call  it. 

A  coat  of  arms  is  a  design  shown  on  a 
shield  (or  escutcheon  which  may  be  simple, 
or  dived  in  many  ways.  The  object  of  ar- 
morial bearings  was  to  distinguish  one  iron 
clad  warrior  from  another. 

It  was  necessarv  to  provide  for  different 
members  of  a  family,  all  of  whom  were  en- 
titled to  the  paternal  coat.  This  was  man- 
aged by  makinsr  a  slight,  but  well  marked 
difference  in  the  tinctures,  or  insignia. 
Whatever  is  borne  outside  the  shield,  as 
crest,  motto,  suporters,  helmet,  coronet,  or 
mantle,  are  called  "appendages,"  and  can 
be  used  or  not,  as  ornamentation,  though 
none  of  them  are  essential.  . 

The  term  "quartering"  means  that  the 
shield  is  divided  into  four  parts,  two  of 
which  contain  the  paternal  bearing  and  the 
other   the  maternal.     When   all   four  of  a 


man's  grandparents  were  armigers,  he  has 
a  right  to  place  on  his  shield  the  four  coats 
each  in  its  respective  quarter. 

Also  if  his  eight  great-parents  bore  coats 
of  arms,  he  divided  his  shield  in  eight  parts, 
and  if  his  sixteen  great-great-grandparents 
were  armigers,  he  divided  his  shield  in  six- 
teen parts.  This  is  still  called  "quartering." 
The  possession  of  sixteen  coats  (size-quar- 
ters) being  an  evidence  of  "blue  blood," 
without  which  in  those  days  scarcely  any 
officer  of  importance  could  be  obtained. 
Though  a  simple  coat  of  arms  without  quar- 
terings  is  often  more  ancient  and  illustrious 
than  a  shield  crowded  with  many  coats. 

The  designs  most  frequently  used  on  a 
shield  are  termed  "Ordinaries"  next,  parti- 
tion line,  and  next  "charges,"  which  are  of 
great  variety,  containing  nearly  all  things 
on  earth,  "the  heavens  above,  and  the  wa- 
ters under  the  earth."  When  an  object  is 
to  be  represented  in  colors  true  to  life,  it  is 
blazoned  (or  described)  as  proper,  (or  nat- 
ural color.  An  Italian  of  the  16th  century, 
name  de  Petro  Soncto,  is  said  to  have  de- 
vised the  plan  of  representing  the  tinctures 
of  armoral  bearings  in  black  and  white 
drawings  or  engravings  by  certain  dots, 
marks,  and  lines  running  at  different  angles. 

Armorial  bearings  of  ordinary  families 
consist  of  shield,  crest  and  motto.  Mantle 
and  helmet  may  be  used  when  there  is  a 
crest  displayed. 

As  Americans  recognize  no  rank  above 
"gentleman,"  no  arms  borne  in  this  coun- 
try should  be  surmounted  by  any  helmet 
other  than  one  of  plain  steel,  in  profile, 
facing  the  dexter  side,  with  visor  closed, 
except  in  especial  individual  cases. 

The  upper  third  of  a  shield  is  the  "chief 
part;"  the  lower  third,  the  base;  and  the 
intermediate  part  is  the  "fess  point."  A 
point  half  way  between  the  fess  point  and 
top  of  the  shield  is  the  "honor  point,"  and 
half  way  between  the  fess  point  and  bottom 
of  the  shield  is  the  "nombril  point." 

A  shield  is  further  divided  into  thirds ; 
that  to  the  right  of  the  bearer  being  the 
"dexter  side"  and  that  to  the  left  of  the 
bearer,  the  "sinister"  side,  the  space  be- 
tween being  the  middle.  The  dexter  side 
would  be  to  the  left  of  the  shield  to  anyone 
facing  it,  and  the  sinister  side  to  the  right. 

The  crest  is  the  uppermost  part  of  the  ac- 
cessories to  a  coat  of  arms,  and  anything 
that  is  used  as  a  charge  on  a  shield  may  be 


49 

used  as  the  crest.  While  many  old  coats  of 
arms  had  no  crests,  a  crest  could  not  exist 
without  its  coat  of  arms.  Women  do  not 
inherit  crests  with  their  arms. 

A  woman  derives  her  right  to  hereditary 
armorial  bearings  from  two  sources  only.  If 
she  be  a  spinster,  she  inherits  from  her 
father,  the  bearings  being  not  on  a  shield 
but  on  a  lozenge,  which  is  diamond-shaped, 
the  outer  edges  of  which  may  be  ornamen- 
ted, and  the  upper  point  is  usually  embel- 
lished with  a  bow  of  ribbon.  If  married, 
she  inherits  from  her  husband,  the  bearings 
being  on  a  shield,  but  without  its  accesso- 
ries. When  she  becomes  a  widow,  she 
uses  these  same  bearings  on  a  lozenge  in- 
stead of  on  a  shield. 

All  works  on  heraldry  teach  that  crest, 
helmet,  wreath,  mantle,  and  motto  belong  to 
men  only,  and  are  never  used  with  the  arms 
of  women. 

A  motto  is  not  a  necessary  attribute,  even 
for  coats  of  arms  for  males,  and  many  an- 
cient bearings  lack  this  accessory.  Devices 
on  the  shield  itself  are  all  the  women  of  the 
family  may  rightfully  use. 

If  the  husband  be  an  armiger,  and  the 
wife's  father  not,  she  bears  her  husband's 
devices  only. 

If  the  wife's  father  also  has  the  right  to 
bear  arms,  the  husband  combines  those 
bearings  with  his  own  in  one  of  two 
ways.  If  she  be  an  "'heiress  in  blood."  he 
bears  her  father's  coat  on  a  small  shield, 
placed  in  the  center  of  his  own.  This  small 
shield  is  called  an  "ines-cutcheon."  If 
she  is  not  an  heiress,  he  places  her  father's 
bearings  in  the  sinister  half  of  his  shield, 
his  own  bearings  being  on  the  dexter  half. 
This  is  called  "impaling." 

The  foregoing  rules  are  those  governing 
English  heraldry. 

There  is  an  emblem  most  appropriate  for 
women's  use  in  the  decoration  of  plate,  sta- 
tionery, carriages,  etc.,  instead  of  armorial 
devices,  which  is  the  "badge." 

There  are  very  few  families  having  au- 
thentic hereditary  badges,  but  those  who 
have  them,  treasure  them  highly,  among 
them  being  the  "White  Rose  of  York"  and 
the  "Red  Rose  of  Lancaster."  The  "Sham- 
rock" of  Ireland,  and  "Thistle"  of  Scotland. 

The  badge  is  entirely  distinct  from  the 
coat  of  arms,  though  often  identical  with 
one  of  the  charges  on  the  family  shield.

NOTES    AND    OBSERVATIONS    OF 
THE  AMERICAN  REVOLUTION.

"ITT 

12  Mo.,  1776.  About  the  middle  of  this 
month,  there  was  great  talk  of  pressing 
men  to  go  to  war,  and  very  great  fear  fell 
on  our  young  men  in  general ;  many  strove 
to  keep  themselves  hid,  for  fear  of  being 
forced  to  go  to  war,  for  the  army  now  be- 
gan to  approach  so  near  to  Burlington 
and  there  away.  It  was  said,  that  many 
of  our  young  men  fled  to  barrens  and  cedar 
swamps  about  this  time.  In  this  month 
they  tore  up  and  destroyed  almost,  if  not 
all,  the  big  bridges  between  Philadelphia 
and  Mount  Holly,  to  keep  the  English 
army  from  coming  along,  and  great  com- 
panies of  men  gathered  together  at  Had- 
donfield  and  Moorestown.  On  the  19th  of 
this  month,  the  soldiers  took  our  meeting 
house  to  lodge  in,  and  it  was  so  thronged, 
we  could  not  hold  our  week-day  meeting, 
so  we  held  a  little  meeting  at  Joshua  Bisp- 
ham's,  which  I  believe  was  of  service  to 
some.  The  other  room  was  full  of  soldiers 
most  of  the  time.  It  was  but  a  week,  be- 
fore this  time,  that  the  people  of  Moores- 
town were,  by  reports,  in  full  expectation 
of  seeing,  the  English  army  come  at  the 
lower  end  of  the  town,  and  I  did  expect  it 
before  the  meeting  broke  up.  Now  did 
things  began  to  rise  to  most  excessive 
prices,  both  in  town  and  country. 

See  Jeremiah  IV,  "A  sound  of  battle  is 
in  the  land,  and  great  destruction." 

About  the  middle  of  this  month  great 
fear  fell  on  our  neighborhood,  we  being  in 
full  expectation  of  the  English  Army  upon 
us,  so  that  there  was  great  ado.  Moving 
goods  and  talking  of  hiding  earthly  treas- 
ure, and  I  suppose  a  great  deal  of  that  was 
done,  in  many  places,  but  things  seemed  to 
turn  very  strange  and  unexpected;  about 
the  22A  of  this  month,  the  two  armies  met 
at  Mount  Holly,  and  had  a  skirmish.  The 
Americans  were  driven  out  of  the  town, 
and  came  back  to  Moorestown,  and  by  re- 
ports, the  Hessians,  or  the  English  party, 
did  strip  many  very  much  at  that  time,  in 
Mount  Holly.  Perhaps  twenty  years  be- 
fore, Mount  Holly  was  a  remarkably  high- 
ly favored  place. 

But  there  was  an  admirable  strange  turn. 


for  as  was  reported  about  the  26th  of  the 
month,  a  very  stormy  day,  some  hundreds 
of  the  Hessians,  or  of  the  English  party, 
were  taken  prisoners  at  Trenton  and 
brought  to  Philadelphia,  and  the  rest  drove 
back  towards  Brunswick. 

About  this  time  there  was  mournful 
work,  taking  up  several  of  the  leading  or 
active  men,  some  of  one  side,  and  some 
of  the  other,  too  tedious  to  mention  in  par- 
ticular. Some  were  put  in  prison  on  sus- 
picion of  being  party-takers  on  one  side, 
and  some  on  the  other. 

About  the  22d  of  the  first  month,  1777, 
there  were  very  great  commotions  and 
troubles  amongst  us.  People  were  afraid 
of  traveling  the  great  roads,  because  of  the 
soldiers,  six  of  our  neighbors  being  taken 
up,  pressed,  and  put  in  Burlington  jail,  be- 
cause they  would  not  sign  or  associate  with 
them.  Some  did  sign  and  so  were  sent 
home,  on  condition  to  return  to  them  when 
called  on.  This  was  a  very  sore  trying 
time  to  many  in  Evesham  who  had  lived 
carelessly. 

About  this  time  Mark  Miller  and 
Thomas  Redman,  were  put  in  Gloucester 
prison  for  reading  an  epistle  from  the  meet- 
ings for  sufferings,  held  at  Philadelphia, 
dated  the  21st  of  12  month,  1776. 

There  were  such  reports,  and  noises 
about  pressing  men,  that  we  seemed  to  ex- 
pect to  meet  with  the  trial  every  day,  and 
every  hour. 

1st  month,  26th,  1777.  We  were  told  as 
we  were  going  to  our  meetings,  that  the 
soldiers  intended  to  be  there  to  press  men. 
But  the  meeting  was  quiet.  After  it 
closed,  we  found  them  at  the  door;  that  is, 
two  men  in  the  road,  one  had  a  gun  and  a 
bayonet  fixed.  They  stopped  some  and  or- 
dered and  pressed  them  to  meet  them  the 
next  fourth  day,  but  let  many  pass  without 
interruption.  It  is  strange  to  think  how- 
accustomed  we  seem  to  get  to  these  trials. 
Great  stupidity  and  lukewarmness  also 
prevailed.  Yet  this  proved  a  very  close 
trial  to  some  of  our  neighboring  women, 
on  account  of  their  sons  and  husbands, 
there  being  much  expectations' of  their  be- 
ing taken  to  prison,  or  before  some  of  the 
great  Rulers. 

1st  Mo.  29.  Many  of  our  friends  of 
Chester  met,  the  Captain,  who  seemed  very 
moderate,  they  not  coming  to  any  results, 
adjourned  to  next  seventh  day.

This  manuscript  genealogy  of  the  Far-

It  is  of  course  by  no  means  complete  nor 
absolutely  correct,  considering  the  wide 
dispersion  of  the  families  with  which  it 
deals,  but  it  is  a  reasonably  full  and  accu-

FOREWORD 


In  thanking  the  National  Genealogical  Society  for  wishing  him 
to  take  charge  of  its  Quarterly  the  Editor  asks  your  charity,  sym- 
pathy and  assistance ;  and  he  will  add  a  bit  of  human  nature  in 
the  thought,  that  it  is  much  easier  to  criticise  an  act  than  to  do 
it  and  accept  its  responsibility.  The  writer  is  a  believer  in  genealogy. 
The  Bible  teaches  it;  the  Old  Testament  glories  in  it;  the  New 
begins  with  it;  and  he  is  fully  persuaded  that  no  person  can  under- 
hand history  who  does  not  appreciate  the  importance  of  the  de- 
scent of  those  who  play  the  great  parts  'herein. 

Madame  Goethe  at  a  levee  was  asked  by  a  stranger  "Who 
^he  was?"  "I  am  the  mother  of  Goethe."  That  was  enough; 
there  is  the  reason  for  Goethe's  swaying  the  thought  of  a  powerful 
nation.  Why  does  the  Good  Book  lay  so  much  stress  on  ancestry? 
Because  it  touk  all  those  generations  to  produce  the  Perfect  Man 
Chri-t.  ami  it  likes  to  tell  about  them. 

Our  own  country  has  proven  itself  the  eighth  wonder  of  this 
world.  It  not  only  takes  full  care  of  itself,  but  extends  its  protec- 
tion over  all  other  American  peoples.  We  of  recent  years  have 
just  begun  to  righty  estimate  the  value  and  worth  of  those  who 
Sa.'e  their  lives  and  energies  to  its  foundation,  and  to  prize  our 
descent  from  them.  The\  gave  their  strength,  heart  and  soul  to 
the  establishment  of  the  United  States,  and  now  sleep  the  long 
sleep  beneath  the  green  sod,  leaving  us.  their  children,  to  carry  on 
and  develop  their  mighty  plans.  It  behoove-  us  to  throw  aside  all 
mean,  petty,  sordid,  selfish  things  and  do  the  deeds  left  for  us  to 
perform  by  honored  sires. — Ed.

A  QUAINT  OLD  COMPLIMENT  TO 
THE  OLD  DOMINION. 
Mr.  Davis,  an  Englishman,  spent  four 
and  one-half  years  in  America.  In  his 
History  of  Fairfax  Co.,  Va.  (Lennox  Li- 
brary, N.  Y.  City)  we  find  the  following 
written  in  1802.  "The  higher  Virginians 
seem  to  venerate  themselves  as  men  and 
I  am  persuaded  there  was  not  one  in  com- 
pany who  would  have  felt  himself  em- 
barrassed   at   being  admitted   to  the   pres- 


ence  and  conversation  of  the  greatest  mon- 
arch on  earth.  There  is  a  compound  of 
virtue  and  vice  in  every  human  character ; 
no  man  was  ever  yet  faultless ;  but  what- 
ever may  be  advanced  against  Virginians, 
their  good  qualities  will  always  outweigh 
their  defects ;  and  when  the  efervescence 
of  youth  has  abated,  when  reason  asserts 
her  empire  there  is  no  man  on  earth  who 
discovers  more  exalted  sentiments,  more 
contempt  of  baseness,  more  love  of  justice, 
more  sensibility  of  feeling  than  a  \  irgin- 
ian." 

In  view  of  the  fact  that  this  nation  owes 
so  many  of  its  fundamental  principles  and 
so  much  of  its  territorial  expansion  to  the 
Virginian  of  Colonial  times  the  above  com- 
pliment must  be  agreeable  to  all  Americans.

QUERIES  AXD  ANSWERS. 

Rules  to   be  Observed  by  Contributors  to 
this  Department. 

Where  you  note  more  than  one  number 
there  is  an  answer  and  a  querry  combined. 

1.  Queries  sent  for  publication  must  be 
accompanied  by  10  cents  in  stamps  for 
each  question  asked. 

2.  In  referring  to  a  query  or  answer  that 
has  been  published,  always  give  its  number. 

3.  Write  on  one  side  only  of  your  paper. 
Names  and  dates  must  be  written  clearly. 

4.  Enclose  your  full  name  and  address. 
Thev  will  not  be  printed  unless  you  desire 
it. 

5.  Letters  to  be  forwarded  must  be  in

corner.  A  letter  of  inquiry  addressed  to 
the  editor  must  contain  a  stamp,  if  a  writ- 
ten reply  is  desired. 

162.  Would  like  name  and  address  of 
any  Waterbury  searcher. 

I  am  making  search  for  one  Esther 
Waterbury — born  about  1747.  She  married 
John  Crawford.  I  know  nothing  of  their 
residence  before  1776,  when  they  had  a  son 
John  born  in  Westchester,  N.  Y. 

Tradition  gives  John  and  Esther 
(Waterbury)  Crawford  five  sons,  viz: 
John,  Jonathan.  Nathan,  David  and  Henry; 
the  two  latter  died  young. 

The  Hunts,  Websters  anad  Waterburys 
intermarried ;  Lydia  Webster  married 
Samuel  Waterbury  Nov.  15.  1763;  Susan 
Webster  married  Eliphalet  Hunt  and  had 
a  son  John  Crawford  Hunt. 

Early  records  of  Bedford  ("Westchester 
Co.,  N.  Y.,)  say  that  Nicholas  Webster  and 
David  Waterburv  were  brothers-in-law. 
also  that  David  Waterbury,  son  of  John. — 
— was  one  of  the  original  company  settling 
in  Bedford  in  1683. 

No  Crawfords  nor  Waterburys  are  found 
in  Bedford  cemetery,  but  the  old  Buxton 
cemeterv. about  half-way  between  Bed- 
ford Hills  and  Bedford  was  not  searched. 

I  will  gladly  pay  for  the  knowledge  that 


will  lead  to  the  family  of  John  Crawford 
and  Esther  Waterburv. 

J.  H.  L. 

163.  Green.  Wanted  names  of  parents 
of  Major  Bowen  Green,  born  East  or  West 
Greenwich,  Conn.,  1756.  Was  Drum 
Major  in  the  Revolutionary  War  and  died 
1813,  near  Fultonham,  Schoharie  Co.,  N. 
Y.  He  married  Salley  Colle,  Cole  or  Cool, 
daughter  of  Lendert  or  Leonard  Coole, 
Cole  or  Cool. 

164.  Colle,  Cole  or  Cool.  Wanted 
names  of  parents  of  this  Lendert  or  Leo- 
nard Colle.  Was  he  the  Leonard  Cole  who 
was  an  enlisted  man  in  the  14th  Albany 
County,  N.  Y.  Militia. 

165.  Waterhouse.  Names  of  parents 
wanted  of  Captain  James  Waterhouse  of 
Portsmouth,  N.  H.  He  was  born  about 
1771  and  married  for  his  2nd  wife,  at 
Mount  Desert.  Maine,  Jan.  6,  1817;  Sarah, 
daughter  of  Benjamin  and  Sarah  (Rich- 
ardson) Ward.  Can  anyone  furnish  the 
name  of  the  first  wife  of  this  Captain  James 
Waterhouse.  He  was  a  sea  captain  and 
was  lost  at  sea  in  the  winter  of  1826-7. 

166.  Warp.  Names  of  parents  wanted 
of  Benjamin  Ward  above.  He  was  born  in 
Boston,  Mass.,  Dec.  1764;  married  June 
17,  1786.  Sarah  Richardson,  daughter  of 
Thomas  and  Margaret  (Gott)  Richardson 
of  Mount  Desert,  Maine,  and  died  at 
Southwest  Harbor,  Maine,  1849.

VI RG IN I A  HISTORY. 

Contributed  by  Mrs.  Eula'  K.   Woodward-. 

DIED. 

Departed  this  life  at  his  residence  near 
Woodville  in  Culpeper  Co.  on  the  16th  of 
Jan.  1830,  Col.  John  Slaughter,  in  the  71st 
year  of  his  age ;  leaving  a  widow,  twelve 
grown  children,  and  a  number  of  grand-, 
children  to  lament  his  death.  Col.  S.  en- 
tered the  Army  at  the  age  of  16  was  in  the 
action  of  Trenton  and  Princeton  and  in 
1777  volunteered  in  the  late  Major  Long's 
Company,  to  join  the  chosen  Regiment  of 
Riflemen  which  Morgan  was  directed  to 
raise.  He  was  present  at  Still  Water  and 
witnessed  the  surrender  of  Burgoyne.  He 
was  for  forty-five  years  an  active  magis- 
trate, and  at  the  time  of  his  death,  High 
Sheriff  of  the  Court  for  the  second  time. 

In  New  York,  the  venerable  Col.  Willet, 
on  Sunday  evening,  at  his  house,  Ceder 
Grove,  in  the  91st  year  of  his  age.    He  was 


Leiutenant  in  the  French  war,  and  a,  Col. 
in  war  of  Revolution,  having  raised  a  regi- 
ment by  his  own  means  and  address.  He 
distinguished  himself  by  his  defence  at 
Fort  Stanwix  against  the  united  attacks  of 
the  British  and  Indian  marauders.  (Va. 
Advocate  Sept.  3,  1830.) 

At  the  poor  House,  Mason  County,  Ky. 
on  the  2d  of  Aug.  (1830)  John  Reizer,  a 
native  of  Holland,  supposed  to  have  come 
to  America  during  the  Revolutionary  war; 
was  with  Gen.  Wayne's  army  against  the 
Indians  and  afterwards  lived  many  years 
in  Washington,  K.  (  Ky)  known  there  as 
old  John  the  Baker.  He  was  according  to 
his  own  account.  115  years  old.  In  his  last 
days  he  refused  to  eat  any  thing,  and  lived 
between  30  and  40  days  without  eating  one 
ounce  of  vituals  retaining  his  senses  and 
strength  in  a  surprising  manner  until  his 
last  moments. 

At  his  seat  near  Paris,  Rear  Admiral 
Barre  de  Saint  Leu,  an  officer  who  fought 
at  the  side  of  Rochambeau  and  others.  Like 
Lafayette  he  left  his  happy  shore  to  defend 
the  liberties  of  a  nation  he  loved  and  ad- 
mired with  his  latest  breath.  Never,  said 
he  have  I  lamented  of  having  spent  one 
hour,  in  fighting  for  Washington's  Coun- 
try. Called  upon  a  few  months  ago,  to 
recommend  a  young  citizen  of  this  repub- 
lic he  addressed  the  Secretary  of  War  in 
the  following  language.  "I  should  esteem 
myself  doubly  happy  if  after  shedding  a 
few  drops  of  blood  in  defence  of  the 
liberty  of  America,  I  could  be  of-  any  ser- 
vice in  recommending  to  you.  this  young 
man.  whose  father  is  my  friend."  (Va.  Ad- 
vocate, Oct.  8.  1830.)

CALDWELLS   OF  SCOTLAND. 
(Copyright    1914.) 

BY    MRS.    LEONORE   CALDWELL    BENSON    HILL. 

"Your  fathers,  where  are  they?  and  the 
prophets,  do  they  live  for  ever?"  Zecha- 
riah,  first  chapter,  fifth  verse. 

Honor  they  father  and  mother  so  as 
to  preserve  their  memory  in  history,  that 
it  may  forever  dwell  in  the  land  for  the 
guidance  of  thy  children's  chi'.dren  and 
thus  create  a  growing  interest  in  the  an- 
cestry of  America,  which  will  establish 
Who  is  Who  in  the  present,  but  also  prove 
who  was  who  in  the  past. 

To  be  a  mere  descendant  of  illustrious  an- 
cestry is  in  its  self  of  little  note,  but  to 
be  and  to  do.  to  aid  in  all  walks  of  life 
in  the  elevation  of  humanity  and  of  one's 
country  is  a  thing  worthy  to  leave  one's 
children.  In  this  can  be  shown  the  hered- 
ity of  a  family  and  a  race  where  the  indi- 
vidual in  himself  reflects  the  deeds  of  good 
ancestry.  All  cannot  walk  the  same  road 
or  do  the  same  work,  nor  is  it  best  that  they 
should. 

"Tis  the  old  old  story,  one  man  will  read 

His  lesson  of  life  in  the  sky. 
And  the  other,  blind  to  the  present  need 

Will   see  with  the  spirit's  eye. 

You  may  grind  their  souls  in  the  self  same 
mill 

You  may  bind  them  heart  and  brow. 
But  the  poet  will  follow  the  rainbow  still 

And  his  brother  will  follow  the  plow. 

In  looking  back  to  former  ages,  and  re- 
calling events  which  are  past,  we  may  not 
only  greatly  enlarge  our  minds,  but  find 
arguments  to  strengthen  our  faith  in  the 
divine  government  and  motives  to  greater 
zeal  and  fidelity  in  His  service,  hence 
Moses  reverting  to  the  wonders  which  the 
Lord  had  wrought  for  his  people  to  their 
deliverance  from  Egyptian  servitude,  and 
to  their  protection  and  support  in  the 
wilderness — directed  the  Israelites  to  apply 
each  to  his  father  and  the  elders,  for  in- 
struction concerning  those  things  which 
existed  in  the  days  of  old.  and  the  years 
of  proceeding  generations.  "Remember," 
says  he,  "the  days  of  old:  consider  the 
years  of  many  generations:  ask  they 
father,  and  he  will  shew  thee;  thy  elders 
and  they  will  tell  thee."  What  is  here  en- 
joined upon  God's  ancient  people,  may  with 


almost  equal  propriety,  be  urged  upon  us. 
The  duty  of  recalling  and  considering  the 
past  events  of  divine  providence,  in  rela- 
tion to  ourselves  and  to  our  fathers,  not 
only  approves  itself  to  reason,  but  is  en- 
forced by  divine  authority. 

It  has  been  a  long  time  since  our  fore- 
fathers pitched  their  tents  in  the  woods 
of  America,  the  abode  of  savage  beasts 
and  mostly  uncivilized  men,  and  may  the 
history  of  their  deeds  serve  to  excite  in 
our  hearts  those  feelings  of  gratitude  and 
affections  so  justly  due  to  the  God  of  our 
forefathers,  and  encourage  us  to  do  our 
duty  to  record  the  events  of  our  own  gen- 
eration. 

THE    SCOTCH    AS    A    NATION. 

The  Scotch  are  by  no  means  inferior  to 
their  southern  neighbors,  though  in  their 
manners  plain,  frank  and  somewhat  rough, 
yet  they  possessed  a  greater  vivacity  and 
quickness — or  parts — propensities  more 
social  and  stronger  sensibilities  of  all  kinds. 
They  are  distinguished  for  their  hospitality, 
their  valour,  firmness  and  fidelity.  No 
people  display  rnore  faithful  and  affec- 
tionate attachment  to  those  who  have  con- 
ciliated their  good  will :  and  few  nations 
have  given  more  undeniable  proofs  of  gen- 
ius, adapted  to  scientific  and  literary  pur- 
suits :  or  that  have  supported  a  higher  de- 
gree  of  moral   and   political   lespectability. 

Such  were  the  national  traits  which 
characterized  the  Caldwells,  Cauldwell, 
Couldvells,  Calwells,  that  came  to  Amer- 
ica, and  which  have  in  a  good  degree  been 
retained  by  their  posterity.  Many  of  their 
descendants  in  the  several  professions  and 
various  walks  of  life  both  public  and  pri- 
vate have  substained  fair  and  excellent 
characters  and  filled  some  of  the  highest 
offices,  either  literary,  civil  or  military  in 
this  country. 

MOUNT    ARID MOUNT    AUDE. 

Contemporary  writers  on  Caldwell  data 
so  far  have  been  satisfied  to  copy  statements 
without  looking  for  proof  or  consulting 
historical  records  of  the  Old  World  that 
are  available. 

Some  person,  now  unknown,  writes  a 
letter  early  in  the  1800,  that  the  home  of 
the  three  brothers  who  tradition  calls  John, 
Alexander  and  Oliver,  when  at  home,  lived 
on  an  estate  named  Mount  Arid,  this  one 
statement  found  its  way  into  print,  and  has 


13 


been  copied  by  every  writer  unto  this  day. 
As  all  statements  printed  under  the  Cald- 
well Society  must  be  verified  as  far  as  pub- 
lic records,  and  private  family  history  will 
permit,  the  writer  has  been  three  years 
patiently  and  diligently  looking  for  Mount 
Arid.  First  consulting  very  old  maps, 
various  kinds  of  reference  books,  the  En- 
cyclopeadea  Britannica,  Lippincotts  Gaze- 
teer  or  the  World,  Americana,  Cram's 
Atlas,  various  kinds,  sizes  and  dates  of 
dictionaries.  Two  employees  of  the  Library 
of  Congress  after  lending  all  assistance  pos- 
sible became  so  interested  in  the  search, 
that  they  even  looked  on  their  own  accord, 
with  the  result  that  nothing  now  available 
contains  any  notice  of  "Mount  Arid"  but 
"Mount  Aude"  in  France,  formed  of  part 
of  ancient  Languedoc,  bounded  on  the  East 
by  the  Mediterranean,  area  2,436  square 
miles,  is  a  department  of  France,  with  Car- 
cessonne  the  Capitol.  The  land  is  broken 
up  in  mountains  and  hills  which  contains 
iron-mines,  marble  quarries,  and  mineral 
springs.  It  is  traversed  by  the  river  Aude 
which  is  130  miles  long. 

There  is,  however,  an  island  on  the  west 
coast  of  Scotland  called  Arran.  which  con- 
tains 168  square  miles — 20  miles  in  length 
and  about  10  miles  in  breadth — crowned 
with  lofty  granitic  mountains,  connected  by 
sharp  ridges  and  intersected  by  deep 
deep  ravines.  Brodick  Castle,  is  here 
located,  being  the  seat  of  the  Duke  of 
Hamilton. 

So  it  is  only  natural  to  conclude  that 
the  three  brothers  who  fled  from  France  to 
Scotland,  when  at  home  w-as  on  Mount 
Aude,  which  answers  the  location,  said  to 
be  near  Toulon,  which  is  a  seaport  of 
France.  Capital  of  an  arrondissement  in 
the  Department  of  Yar,  situated  on  a  fine 
bay  of  the  Mediterranean  sea.  30  miles 
southeast  of  Marseilles.  It  is  a  fortress  of 
the  first  class,  and  after  Brest,  the  most 
important  naval  station  of  France.  The 
harbor  which  is  spacious  and  safe  has  five 
main  basins.  Toulon  was  made  a  strong 
fortress  in  the  reign  of  Louis  XV.  In  1707 
in  the  war  of  the  Spanish  Succession,  it 
withstood  an  attack  by  the  allies.  In 
August  1 7Q3  it  was  delivered  by  the  Royal- 
ists into  the  hands  of  the  British.  In  De- 
cember of  the  same  year  the  French  re-took 
it.  The  part  played  by  Bonaparte  at  this 
siege  a?  Commander  of  the  French  Artil- 
'  lerv  first  raised  him  into  eminence. 


The  de  Covilles  of  Spain  and  France 
passed  through  Normandy,  then  into  Scot- 
land where  they  became  MacCawell,  Mac- 
Caghwell,  Colwill,  Coghill,  Cowell. 

The  origin  of  the  name  "Cowel"  in  Scot- 
land, has  nothing  to  do  with  the  family 
name  of  the  de  Covilles.  The  Cowel  Moun- 
tains were  inhabited  by  a  tribe  before  our 
people  left  France. 

The  Caldwells  who  settled  in  Scotland 
crossed  and  recrossed  into  Ireland,  where 
the  name  became  known  as  Collwell,  Cod- 
wel.  Colvin,  Colvell.  It  is  from  the  Irish 
branches  that  so  many  varieties  of  spelling 
of  the  name  came  into  America.  While  we 
have  some  few  Scotch  Cauldwells  direct 
from  Scotland  to  America,  the  larger  por- 
tion of  Scotch  passed  over  to  Ireland  for 
a  while  before  embarking  for  America. 
The  Scotch  Caldwells  has  been  the  greatest 
wanderers  on  the  face  of  the  new  world, 
which  fact  will  be  shown  in  the  next  two 
articles. 

It  is  almost  impossible  to  separate  the 
Scotch  from  Scotland  to  America,  and  the 
Scotch  from  Ireland  to  America,  because 
so  often  we  find  a  man  from  Irelair!  with 
a  family  has  also  with  him  sisters  or  broth- 
ers and  often  cousins  direct  from  Scotland 
who  have  joined  him  for  the  embarking  to 
America. 

For  the  benefit  of  the  Caldwells  who  are 
interested  in  the  Genealogical  line  and  yet 
who  have  not  studied  the  country  or  clan, 
in  Scotland,  the  writer  takes  pleasure  in 
presenting  the  names  of  the  counties  in 
which  various  branches  of  the  Caldwells 
have  resided  at  some  one  time:  Inverness, 
Kincardine,  Kinross,  Renfrew,  Avr,  Argyll. 

There  is  no  "Castle  Caldwell"  in  Scot- 
land as  many  have  claimed  and  as  published 
in  various  sketches  on  the  family  from  time 
to  time,  but  a  vast  estate  simply  known  as 
"Caldwell"  the  mistake  has  come  about  in 
this  way,  one  of  the  sons  of  the  Scotch 
Caldwell,  settled  in  Ireland  and  there  es- 
tablished a  Castle,  of  which  a  full  descrip- 
tion will  be  given  later  in  this  article. 

To  prove  that  the  Scotch  were  not  the 
uncouth  and  uneducated  race  that  ha?  often 
been  implied,  it  is  worth  while  t  >  mention 
that  Scotland  has  had  the  advantage  of  a 
national  system  of  elementary  education 
established  by  law  in  every  parish  since 
1696.  The  first  University  was  that  of  St. 
Andrew  dating  from  1411,  Glasgow  1450, 
Kings    College   and   University,   Aberdeen, 


14 


1494,  Edinburgh  University  1582,  Mar- 
ischal  College  and  University,  Aberdeen 
J593-  The  two  Aberdeen  Universities  were 
united  in  i860.  But  to  go  back  a  bit  in  the 
history  of  Scotland  and  its  advantages  both 
in  education  and  the  Christian  faith. 

About  the  year  565  a  native  of  Ireland 
(Gartan  in  Donegal)  known  as  Saint  Co- 
lumba,  who  was  born  in  the  year  521, 
crossed  over  to  an  Island  on  the  west  coast 
of  Scotland  called  "Hy"  but  now  known  as 
Iona,  or  Icolmkill,  in  the  Atlantic  Ocean 
and  there  he  established  a  Church,  which 
was  also  a  seat  of  learning,  St.  Columba 
then  started  on  a  mission  of  conversion 
among  the  northern  Picts.  (Picts  a  noun, 
A  painted  person :  one  of  the  ancient  race 
that  inhabited  Scotland)  he  traversed  the 
whole  of  Northern  Scotland,  preaching  the 
Christian  faith  and  founding  monasteries, 
all  of  which  he  made  subject  to  that  which 
he  had  set  up  on  the  Island  of  Hy.  The 
Columban  Church  was  in  some  points  op- 
posed to  Rome.  He  died  on  the  Island  of 
Hy.  or  Iona  in  the  year  597. 

In  the  Church  said  to  have  been  built 
by  Queen  Margaret  toward  the  latter  part 
of  the  nth  century  has  the  tombs  of  48 
Scottish  Kings,  4  Kings  of  Ireland,  8  Nor- 
wegian Monarchs,  and  1  King  of  France. 


It  will  be  well  to  mention  Sir  William 
Wallace,  a  Scotch  patriot ;  born  in  Ayrshire, 
Scotland,  about  1274.  Having  slain  a  son, 
and  several  of  the  retainers  of  the  English 
sheriff  of  Dundee,  for  an  insult  offered  to 
him,  Wallace  fled  to  the  woods  and  was 
outlawed.  Gathering  togather  a  number  of 
followers,  he  drove  the  English  out  of 
Aberdeen,  Forfar,  Brechin,  and  elsewhere, 
and  in  1207  defeated  the  English  army  at 
the  battle  of  Stirlingbridge — thus  liberating 
his  country  for  a  time,  fit  has  been  said 
that  some  of  the  Cauldwells  was  with  Wal- 
lace, and  again  related  to  him,  but  so  far 
this  fact  has  not  yet  been  established.)  He 
was  chosen  one  of  the  commanders-in-chief 
of  the  Scotch  army,  and  afterward  guardian 
of  the  Kingdom. 

Scotland  was  first  visited  by  the  Roman 
troops  under  Agricola,  who  penetrated  to 
the  foot  of  the  Grampian  Mountains.  It 
was  afterward  exposed  to  the  ravages  of 
the  Norwegians  and  Danes,  where  many 
bloody  battles  were  fought.  Various  con- 
tests were  also  maintained  with  the  King 
of  England.    It  was  Robert  Bruce,  however. 


who  secured  the  independence  of  the  coun- 
try, and  his  title  to  the  throne  by  the  de- 
cisive battle  of  Bannockburn  in  1314.  He 
was  succeeded  by  his  nephew  Robert  Stew- 
art, he  by  his  son  Robert,  but  being  a 
weakling,  the  reins  of  government  were 
seized  by  the  Duke  of  Albany,  who  stoned 
to  death  the  eldest  son  of  the  King.  The 
original  Scotch  church  seems  to  have  been 
that  of  the  Culdees,  then  in  mediaeval  times, 
the  Roman  Catholic  Church,  was  to  a  cer- 
tain extent  the  national  church  of  Scotland. 
The  church  resisted  the  claims  of  suprem- 
acy over  it  put  forth  at  one  time  by  the 
Archbishop  of  Canterbury;  and  in  1176  in 
self-defense  cast  itself  into  the  arms  of  the 
Roman  pontiff.  When  the  Reformation 
struggle  began,  the  crown  remained  adher- 
ent to  the  old  faith,  while  the  nobility 
tended  to  the  new.  From  the  war  of  inde- 
pendence Scotland  had  considered  it  good 
policy  to  guard  against  any  aggression  on 
the  part  of  England  by  the  close  alliance 
with  France,  and  when  the  Reformation 
began  there  were  actually  French  troops  in 
Scotland.  The  Protestant  "Lords  of  the 
Congregation"  who  had  taken  up  arms  to 
defend  their  cause,  applied  for  aid  to  Queen 
Elizabeth,  who  sent  troops  to  aid  them  in 
expelling  the  French.  By  a  treaty  signed 
on  July  7,  1560,  it  was  stipulated  that  both 
the  French  and  the  English  troops  should 
withdraw  from  Scotland.  On  August  24, 
same  year  the  Scotch  Parliament  abolished 
the  papal  jurisdiction.  The  reformers 
adapted  what  is  now  called  Presbyterian 
Church  government  through  certain  super- 
intendents were  appointed  whose  offices 
after  a  time  were  swept  away.  The  first 
General  Assembly  was  held  on  Dec.  20, 
1560.  The  semi-republican  constitution  of 
the  Church,  which  became  more  marked 
after  the  office  of  superintendent  has  been 
swept  away  and  the  second  book  of  disci- 
pline published  (the  later  event  in  1578), 
created  jealousy  in  the  minds  of  regents  and 
of  sovereigns,  and  four  or  five  generations 
of  Steuart  Kings  put  forth  long  and  de- 
termined efforts  to  transform  Presbyterian 
into  Episcopal  government.  The  project 
cost  the  lives  and  liberty  of  far  more  people 
than  the  short  sharp  Reformation  struggle 
had  done,  and  ended  in  failure.  The 
Revolution  settlement  of  1690  re-established 
Presbyterianism,  and  the  General  Assembly, 
which  had  been  interrupted  for  nearly  forty 
years,  began  again  to  sit  and  has  done  so 


annually  from  that  time  till  now. 

The  events  recounted  above  prove  in  a 
measure  the  cause  for  some  of  the  Scotch 
characteristics  brought  into  America. 

RENFREW     IN     SCOTLAND. 

The  parish  of  Renfrew  is  distinguished 
for  its  connections  with  the  ancient  house  of 
Stewart,  the  lands  of  Renfrew  being  the 
first  mentioned  of  the  estate  specified  in 
the  charter  granted  by  King  Malcolm  IV,  in 
1 157,  in  favor  of  WALTER,  son  of  ALAN, 
and  confirming  a  grant  previously  made  by 
King  David  I. 

The  office  of  King's  high  steward,  being 
also  conferred  on  WALTER  and  his  de- 
scendants, they  took  thence  the  surname  of 
STEWART,  and  so  this  corner  of  the 
land  became  the  cradle  of  the  illustrious 
race  destined  to  ascend  in  succession  the 
thrones  of  Scotland  and   England. 

The  burgh  and  district  gave  in  1404  the 
title  of  Baron  of  Renfrew  to  the  heir  ap- 
parent to  the  Scottish  throne  and  the  con- 
nection of  the  place  with  the  ancient  Stew- 
art line  is  still  maintained  by  the  retention  of 
the  title  among  those  borne  bv  the  Prince 
of  Wales. 

CALDWELLS    IN    RENFREW. 

This  family  lived  in  the  Shire  of  Renfrew 
for  many  hundred  years  in  a  good  reputa- 
tion, intermarried  with  honorable  families 
from  whom  is  descended  William  Caldwell, 
of  Strainton,  in  the  Shire  of  Ayr,  Scotland, 
whose  son  John  (by  the  first  wife),  who 
was  later  a  merchant  at  Enniskillin.  Ireland, 
was  born  at  Preston,  in  Ayrshire,  Scotland, 
and  died  the  30th  of  February.  1630.  He 
married  first  Jennette  Grieze,  by  whom  he 
had  a  son  John  ;  he  married  secondly  Mary 
Swetenham  bv  whom  he  had  James,  Roger, 
Robert.  Judith  and  Elizabeth, 

CAt.DWELLS    IN    IRELAND. 

The  Caldwells  are  justly  intitle  to  their 
Coat  of  Arms,  which  bears  a  striking  motto 
"Dare  to  be  Wise."  A  good  American 
motto  would  be  "Defenders  of  the  faith," 
for  the  Caldwell  men  were  very  strict 
churchmen,  reading  of  the  Bible  and  observ- 
ing the  Sabbath  and  keeping  that  day  holy 
with  them  was  a  part  of  their  existance  so 
we  are  told. 

James  the  eldest  son  by  the  second  mar- 
riage of  John  Caldwell  and  Mary  Sweten- 
ham, settled  at  "Ross  Bev"  Ireland,  after- 


ward named  by  him  "Castle  Caldwell"  which 
is  situated  on  the  north  shore  of  a  large 
body  of  water  in  Fermanagh  County  called 
Lower  Lough  Erne,  it  is  a  big  lake  with 
a  narrow  creek  on  the  south,  which  flows 
into  the  lower  part  of  the  county.  James 
Caldwell,  was  created  a  baronet  the  23rd 
day  of  June,  1638.  He  very  much  dis- 
tinguished himself  by  his  behaiver  in  favor 
of  the  Revolution,  as  appears  by  his  me- 
morial to  King  William,  and  the  state  of 
his  case  as  also  by  the  report  of  the  Lord 
Lieutenant  of  Ireland,  in  1695.  He  mar- 
ried Jane  or  Catherine  a  daughter  of  Sir 
John  Hume,  of  "Castle  Hume,"  also  in 
the  county  of  Fermanagh  which  is  situated 
on  the  south  shore  of  Lower  Lough  Erne, 
showing  these  two  families  to  be  near  neigh- 
bors. Of  this  union  there  is  recorded  two 
sons,  and  four  daughters,  Henry  and  Hugh, 
Henry  Caldwell,  Esq.,  the  eldest  son  of 
James  died  before  his  father,  but  leaving 
issue  one  son  John  and  four  daughters.  Sir 
John  Caldwell  of  "Castle  Caldwell,"  the 
second  baronet,  heir  to  his  grandfather  (Sir 
James)  married  1719.  Ann  daughter  of 
John  French,  Dean  of  Raphoe,  ancestor  of 
Lord  Ashtowne,  by  whom  he  had  six  sons : 
1st.  James,  2nd.  John,  3rd.  Hume,  4th, 
Henry.  5th,  Charles,  6th,  Frederic. 

Hugh  Caldwell  second  son  of  James,  died 
without  is^ue. 

Sir  James  four  daughters  were  Edith, 
who  married  Charles  Newcomen  of  Drum- 
ming, County  Loughford.  Second  Frances, 
third  Mary  who  become  the  wife  of  James 
Johnston,  of  Mahermanagh,  Esq. 

Sir  John  Caldwell  and  his  wife  Ann 
French  had  two  daughters  besides  the  six 
sons  mentioned  above,  they  were  Ann  and 
Catherine.  Sir  John  died  1744  and  was 
succeeded  bv  his  son  James  Caldwell,  but 
we  shall  tell  of  Hume  first.  Colonel  Hume 
Caldwell  the  third  son,  was  born  1735  and 
being  intended  for  the  University  was  in- 
structed in  the  Latin  and  Greek  languages 
at  home  under  a  private  tutor  until  he  was 
about  fourteen  years  old,  at  that  time  his 
eldest  brother  Sir  James  being  in  the  service 
of  the  Empress  Queen  Maria  Theresa,  then 
in  alliance  with  Great  Brition  and  having 
the  good  fortune  to  recommend  himself  to 
the  personal  notice  of  her  Imoerial  Majesty, 
the  Queen  made  an  offer  to  Sir  James  of 
taking-  one  of  his  brothers  into  her  service 
and  Hume  being  of  the  proper  age,  was 
thought  of  for  that  purpose :  it  being  neces- 


i6 


sary  that  he  should  be  instructed  in  the 
modern  languages  and  in  the  mathematics, 
to  qualify  him  for  the  Military  service,  he 
was  sent  to  a  French  Academy  in  Dublin. 
In  the  year  1750  he  came  to  London,  on 
his  way  to  Vienna ;  and  at  London  he 
was  received  by  his  brother  Sir  James,  who 
was  to  leave  the  Imperial  service  the  war 
being  over,  to  return  home.  Sir  James  had 
been  created  Count  of  Milan,  in  the  Holy 
Roman  Empire  for  his  distinguished  abili- 
ties by  the  Empress  Maria  Tresea.  In  1766 
Sir  James,  while  passing  through  Vienna, 
was  received  by  the  Queen,  who  in  a  very 
gracious  manner  charged  him  with  a  very 
magnificent  enamelled  gold  box,  to  pre- 
sent from  her  Imperial  Majesty  to  Lady 
Dowager  Caldwell,  mother  to  Col.  Hume 
Caldwell,  as  a  testimony  of  her  gratitude 
for  the  signal  service  performed  by  him. 
Engraved  in  the  inside  of  the  lid  of  the 
box,  is  this  inscription :  '"Her  Sacred  Im- 
perial and  Apostolic  Majesty,  the  Empress 
Queen,  sends  this  box  to  my  Lady  Dowager 
Caldwell,  as  a  grateful  remembrance  of  the 
Signal  service  performed  by  her  son,  Hume 
Caldwell  Colonel  Commandant  of  a  Regi- 
ment of  Infantry  Knight  of  the  Military 
order  of  Maria  Theresa,  who  distinguished 
himself  on  all  occasions  by  his  Military 
knowledge  and  by  heroic  bravery.  He  was 
one  of  the  first  that  scaled  the  walls  of 
Schweiduids,  at  the  head  of  a  column  which 
he  commanded,  and  when  that  Fortress  was 
besieged  by  the  King  of  Prussia  he  was 
killed  in  a  sally  which  he  conducted  on  the 
15th  of  August  1762,  in  the  27th  year  of  his 
age,  very  much  regretted  by  the  Court  and 
the  whole  Army. 

Sir  James  Caldwell,  raised  during  the  last 
war,  at  his  own  expense,  a  body  of  light 
horse,  consisting  of  250  men,  the  whole  es- 
tablishment of  his  corps  included,  which  he 
commanded  for  near  four  years.  The  City 
of  Dublin  presented  him  with  his  freedom 
in  a  box,  on  the  lid  of  which  is  the  Arms  of 
the  City,  on  the  bottom  is  this  inscription. 
We,  the  lord  Major,  Sheriffs  and  Com- 
mons, of  the  City  of  Dublin,  do  unani- 
mously present  the  Honourable  Sir  James 
Caldwell,  Bart.,  Count  of  Milan  of  the"  Holy 
Roman  Empire,  one  of  the  gentlemen  of 
his  Majesty's  most  honourable  privy-cham- 
ber, fellow  of  the  Royal  Society,  a  Gov- 
ernor of  a  regiment  of  Militia,  with  his 
freedom  of  this  city  in  this  box,  on  account 
of  the   Signal  service   which  he  performed 


for  his  country,  in  raising  in  the  year  1759 
a  regiment  of  light  horse,  at  his  own  private 
expense,  for  the  defense  of  this  kingdom 
when  an  invasion  was  threatened;  and  after 
the  emergency,  for  employing  his  well  ap- 
pointed regiment  to  the  effectual  advantage 
of  the  fair  trader,  and  the  essential  in- 
crease of  his  Majesty's  revenue. 

Henry  Gunx, 
Town    Clerk. 

The  gentlemen  of  the  privy  chamber 
were  instituted  by  King  Henry  VII  to  at- 
tend the  Court  of  their  diversions,  prog- 
resses, 'etc.,  at  their  own  expense  with  no 
other  view  than  the  Honour  of  the  office 
and  being  in  the  way  of  preferment.  He 
limited  their  number  to  forty-eight  and 
gave  them  the  title  of  Honourable.  Twelve 
are  in  waiting  quarterly,  and  two  of  them 
are  obliged  to  lie  at  night  in  the  privy- 
chamber. 

Sir  James  Caldwell,  married  in  1753, 
Elizabeth,  daughter  of  Josiah  Hart,  D:  D., 
Lord  Archbishop  of  Tuam,  and  Elizabeth 
Fitzmaurice  ( grand-daughter  of  the  Earl 
of  Kerry,  who  died  in  Sept.  1778),  by 
whom  he  had  three  sons  viz.,  first,  John, 
his  heir ;  second',  Fitzmaurice,  who  married 
Hannah,  widow  of  Sir  James  Stratford 
Tuite,  Baronet;  third,  Josiah  John;  and 
four  daughters,  Mary.-Annie,  Arabella, 
Elizabeth,  and  Amelia-Anne.  He  died  in 
1784,  and  was  succeeded  by  his  son,  Sir 
JohYi  Caldwell,  of  Castle  Caldwell,  the.; 
fourth  baronet,  and  second  Count;  he  mar- 
ried Harriet,  daughter  of  Hugh  Meynell, 
Esq. 

ISLE  OF  ELY. 

In  1643  Oliver  Cromwell  inherited  .an 
estate  and  was  made  Lieutenant  Governor 
of  the  Isle  of  Ely.  Several  of  his-  Scotch 
cousins,  the  Cauldwells  joined  him  in  resi- 
dence, and  shortly  after  changed  the  spell- 
ing of  their  names  to  the  common  sound  of 
pronouncing  it,  to  Coldwell.  One  William 
Caldwell  was  born  shortly  after  arrival 
from  Solway  Firth,  he  was  educated  at 
Queen  College,  Cambridge  and  became 
Vicar  of  Wisbeach,  one  of  the  prebendaries 
of  the  Cathedral  church  of  Ely,  he  mar- 
ried— had  a  daughter  named  Prudence 
(who  married  William  Fienes  the  second 
son  of  Lord  Say  and  Sele,  K.  C.)  (Collins 
Peerage")  and  one  son  William  Caldwell, 
Jr.,  born  July  20,  1673,  he  in  turn  married, 
Mary   the    daughter   of   Thomas    Edwards, 


17 


of  Wisbech,  he  died  February  nth,  1706, 
and  is  buried  in  St.  Albans,  in  Hertford- 
shire, at  Welwyn  Church,  his  monument 
was  sculptured  with  his  Coat  of  Arms,  he 
had  one  son  William,  born  1695,  when  about 
sixteen  years  old  he  was  kidnapped  and  im- 
pressed into  the  British  Navy,  presumably 
by  those  most  interested  in  his  mother's 
second  marriage  to  which  he  strongly  ob- 
jected. It  is  said  his  mother  was  not  only 
very  beautiful,  but  very  wealthy  as  well. 

It  was  in  the  fall  of  171 2  that  the  ship  on 
which  he  was  impressed  dropped  anchor  in 
Boston  harbor,  under  the  cover  of  night 
he  left  ship  without  leave,  turning  his  hack 
on  the  Royal  Navy,  and  the  City  of  Boston 
and  made  for  freedom,  plunging  into  'he 
heart  of  the  country  before  stopping.  A 
fugitive  and  a  deserter — but  he  soon  made 
friends,  and  settled  with  a  farmer  near 
Stroughton.  Mass..  who  offered  him  a  home. 
From  the  time  of  his  arrival  in  17 12,  to 
1733,  he  remained  with  this  one  family.  In 
1734  he  married  Jane  Jordan,  of  Strough- 
ton. Mass.  In  the  year  1742.  he  with  his 
wife  Jane,  and  five  children  and  some  of 
his  wife's  people  moved  to  Connecticut  re- 
siding near  Bridgeport,  as  late  as  1758 
where  other  children  were  born.  They 
then  made  up  a  family  party  and  started 
on  the  Ion?  journey  to  Nova  Scotia.  One 
son  ran  away  on  the  first  part  of  the  journey 
and  never  joined  his  family  which  has 
caused  some  writers  to  account  for  this 
runaway  son  Ebenezer,  who  settled  in 
Bridgeport  (son  of  William)  to  be  another 
branch  of  some  other  Caldwell,  he  was  a 
soldier  in  the  Revolution  serving  with  the 
Minute  Men  of  Mass.,  also  with  Mont- 
gomery in  his  expedition  against  Canada, 
and  died  in  1827. 

William  was  the  father  of  eleven  children 
in  all.  five  born  in  Mass..  some  in  Conn., 
others  in  Nova  Scotia,  he  died  October  2S. 
1802,  at  the  advanced  age  of  108  years. 

THE    TERM    SCOTCH-IRISH. 

Implies  not  the  amalgamation  of  distinct 
Scotch  and  Irish  families,  but  like  "Anglo- 
Saxon."  and  "Indo-Brition,"  Simply  that 
the  people  of  one  country  were  transplanted 
into  the  other,  the  Scotch-irish  settlers  in 
the  back  woods  of  Virginia,  are  direct  de- 
scendants of  the  Scotch  who  colonized  the 
North  of  Ireland,  during  the  religious 
troubles  of  Great  Brition  from  the  reign  of 
Henrv  VIII  and  continuously  to  the  time 
of  William  III. 


The  lowland  Cauldwells  and  his  border- 
land English  cousin  Covill,  left  heather 
clad  mountains  and  grazing  flocks  to  cross 
the  narrow  waters  of  the  North  Channel 
into  Antrim,  Donegal  and  s  Down.  They 
abandoned  pastoral  lands,  for  flax  fields 
and  bleech  greens,  surrounding  and  isolated 
existence  to  live  close  togather  upon  small 
farms.  Aghadowey  is  a  level  region  with 
a  gentle  slope  to  the  river,  the  south  por- 
tion joins  Kilrea,  everywhere  can  be  traced 
houses  built  by  the  first  Scotch  settlers, 
termed  "C'.acken"  Gaelic  for  villege.  The 
people  are  a  strong  well  formed  race  both 
men  and  women  being  far  above  what 
would  be  termed  the  averaged  height  of 
today.  They  were  principally  farmers,  but 
many  also  worked  on  the  bleach-greens, 
while  other  settlements,  spent  their  lives  in 
weaving  on  the  looms  which  stood  in  their 
own  houses.  (James  Caldwell  proprietor 
near  the  City  of  Cork,  MunMer  Province, 
Ireland,  had  on  his  estate  extensive  "linen 
bleaches." )  It  was  not  long  before  these 
new  scenes  and  closer  relationship  in  living 
quicken  the  mentalities  of  the  transplanted 
Scotchman  and  this  closer  community  life 
enlarged  their  social  instinct,  until  commer- 
sional  ambition  developed  in  quite  a  num- 
ber. 

The  Episcopalians,  all  powerful  in  gov- 
ernment and  the  Roman  Catholics,  strong 
in  number,  pressed  the  Scotch  Presbyterians 
on  all  sides,  to  not  only  exercise  their  loy- 
altv,  but  their  patience.  It  is  no  wonder 
that  a  century  of  these  social  and  religious 
influences  the  Scotch  character  must  have 
changed  to  a  new  moulding.  Consider  first 
the  sternness  of  the  old  Scotch  character 
( which  nowadays  is  considered  stuborn- 
ness),  then  their  persecutions  and  many 
trials  amid  their  residence  in  a  strange 
country,  wedded  to  the  pathos  and  comic 
humor  of  the  Irish,  did  much  to  soften 
their  sternness  and  the  Scotch-irishman  is 
a  result  of  slow  fusion  of  diverse  contrary 
characteristics. 

Time,  privations,  religious  rights  and 
wars,  gave  to  the  Scotch  in  Ireland  mem- 
ories of  the  bloody  Claverhouse  and  Tyr- 
comul  that  became  a  part  of  his  bone  and 
fiber,  handed  down  by  word  of  mouth  from 
generation  to  generation  even  unto  this 
day. 

The  mothers  as  far  south  as  the  moun- 
tains of  Kentucky  and  Tennessee,  pass  on 
the  tradition  when  she  exclaims  to  her  un- 


t8 


rully  son,  "Behave  yourself  or  Clavers  will 
get  ye."  To  her  Clevers  is  a  bogey,  to 
her  ancestors  Graham  of  Claverhouse  was  a 
very  real  cause  for  terror.  This  is  only 
one  of  the  inheritances  of  the  religious 
warfares.  Now  what  have  you  to  say  of 
Gabriel  Barr  and  Rachel  Wilson,  who  were 
lovers  for  over  forty  years,  who  would  not 
or  could  not  marry  because  there  were  two 
warring  Presbyterian  churches  in  London- 
derry and  neither  lover  would  abandon  an 
allegiance  of  faith  for  the  ties  of  affections. 
This  proves  his  stubborness,  and  her  de- 
termination of  will  power.  The  transplanted 
Scot  was  more  versatile  and  fertile  in  re- 
sources, less  clannish  and  pugnacious  than 
at  home,  was  quick  to  see  the  advantage  of 
partnership  and  of  co-operation  and  less 
on  personality. 

The  enforced  denial  of  the  franchise  to 
non-conformists  in  Ireland  threw  the 
Scotch-irish  back  on  the  church  assemblies 
for  exercise  in  government  which  made 
them  all  the  more  eager  for  participation 
in  affairs  of  state  when  they  reached 
America. 

The  great  oppression  commercially,  polit- 
ically and  religiously  prepared  those  who 
emigrated  to  the  colonies  for  whatever  of 
military  science  the  Scotch-irish  did  not 
learn  at  the  siege  of  Londonderry,  they  ac- 
quired in  the  French  and  Indian  wars  in 
America.  Their  healthful  lives  in  the  open 
fitted  them  for  camp  and  march ;  and  the 
ever  inborn  hostility  toward  England,  made 
them  anxious  to  be  to  the  front  in  the  early 
weeks  of  1775.  Every  race  has  brought 
through  its  people  some  special  gift  in  Art. 
Lititure  or  Science,  but  it  is  left  to  the 
Scotch  and  the  Irish  to  boast  of  the  love  of 
the  Old  Testament,  as  their  special  gift  to 
the  New  World.  The  wonderful  and  beau- 
tiful Bible  stories  forever  held  their  charm 
with  these  pure  minded  people.  The  word 
of  God  sounded  better  in  Gaelic,  so  as  late 
as  1735  the  State  of  Georgia  applied  to  the 
Society  in  Scotland  to  send  out  a  minister 
who  could  preach  in  Gaelic  to  the  old 
Scotch  Presbyterian  emigrant.  The  growth 
of  the  Irish  potato  and  flax  were  the  first 
lessons  in  economic  life  the  transplanted 
Scotch-irishman  taught  the  New  Eng- 
ender. It  was  about  the  year  1720  that 
the  town  of  Boston,  Mass.,  opened  a  public 
spinning  school  to  encourage  the  new  in- 
dustry. 


THE  SCOTCH-IRISH   CHARACTER. 

This  attempt  to  give  some  impression  and 
idea  of  the  Scotch  in  Ireland,  and  of  those 
who  came  to  America,  so  much  emphasis 
has  been  placed  upon  documentary  history, 
that  race  characteristics  have  played  only 
a  very  small  part  in  the  story.  But  these 
people  of  Coleraine,  on  the  Bann,  of  Stra- 
bane  and  Londonderry,  came  into  the  rural 
settlement  of  the  New  World  with  so  dis- 
tinct a  personality,  with  customs  and  habits 
so  marked,  that  they  have  left  an  enduring 
impress.  Since  the  days  of  the  battle  of 
Dunbar  (1650),  the  Scotchman  had  lived 
in  the  Atlantic  colonies.  How  did  his  in- 
fluence differ  from  that  of  his  Scotch  cousin 
of  Ulster?  who  came  to  America  in  the 
year  1720  or  thereabout,  did  the  life  in 
Lister  really  effect  a  change?  Certain  ora- 
tors and  writers  have  from  time  to  time 
made  this  claim. 

The  Scotch-irish  did  much  more  than 
defend  the  frontier  and  fight  to  win  battles 
of  the  Revolution,  for  they  excelled  in 
whatever  they  undertook.  Education,  Cul- 
ture, Art,  or  material  success  of  the  larger 
kind.  They  conformed  their  lives  to  their 
own  standard,  as  measured  by  opportunity 
and  the  times. 

Let  us  go  back  a  little,  in  1718  we  find 
the  Scotch-irish  formed  a  line  of  settlement 
from  Maine,  (William  Caldwell  and  his 
wife  Sarah  Morrison,  with  their  children 
left  Ireland  for  New  England,  August 
1718)  into  New  Hampshire,  following  the 
coast  then  into  Massachusetts,  on  to  New 
York,  and  scattering  through  Pennsylva- 
nia, on  to  Mary-land  and  Virginia.  Ac- 
customed to  close  and  careful  reasoning  in 
debate  the  Scotch-irish  from  the  State  of 
Maine  all  along  the  coast  far  into  the  South 
accepted  political  responsibility  promptly 
and  on  all  occasions  carried  them  through 
successfully.  In  later  years  when  they  in- 
vaded the  Carolinas,  Georgia  and  Kentucky, 
they  did  not  out  number  the  natives  yet 
they  helped  to  make  history  in  the  south 
as  no  other  nation  can  claim.  The  result 
were  the  next  generation  of  those  Southern 
States,  the  product  of  the  American  soil, 
was  a  shock  and  surprise  to  Europe,  the 
enrollment  of  Statesmen,  Soldiers  and 
Preachers,  did  prove  the  latent  power  of 
the  Scotch-irish  of  the  highest  degree.  In 
careers  devoted  to  Government,  War  and 
Exploration,  the  Scotch-irish  has  far  ex- 
ceeded their  natural  proportion.

February  28th,  at  The  Xational  Hotel,  than 
which  no  place  could  be  more  appropriate,

FRIEXDS  IX  NEW  JERSEY  AND 
PENNSYLVANIA. 

First   yearly   meeting  of   Friends   in   the 
Provinces  of  New  Jersey  and  Pennsylvania. 
Contributed  by  Mrs.  James1  Clark  Fisher, 
Recdville,    Virginia. 

The  first  yearly  meeting  for  the  prov- 
inces of  New  Jersey  and  Pennsylvania, 
was  held  at  Burlington,  X.  J.,  in  the  house 
of  Thomas  Gardiner,  the  31st  of  the  sixth 
month,  1 68 1. 

At  the  yearly  meeting  held  in  1682  it 
was  advised  that  male  and  female,  both 
young  and  old,  who  make  mention  of  the 
name  of  the  Lord,  may  all  take  heed  that 
they  be  not  found  in  wearing  superfluity  of 
apparel,  and  immoderate  or  unseemly  tak- 
ing of  tobacco.  Also  selling  of  needless 
things  whereby  any  may  take  occasion  of 
offence  justly,  but  that  we  all  may  be 
found  to  be  kept  within  the  bounds  of 
moderation,  and  within  the  bounds  of  the 
spirit  of  truth  and  may  be  known  to  be 
governed  by  the  truth  in  all  concerns,  so 
shall  we  be  to  the  glory  of  God,  and  to 
comfort  one  of  another. 

In  year  1685.  it  was  unanimously  agreed 
and  concluded  by  the  yearly  meeting  that 
there  be  but  one  yearly  meeting  in  Penn- 
sylvania and  New  Jersey — to  be  held  the 
next  year  at  Burlington,  on  the  first  day 
of  the  seventh  month,  for  worship,  and  the 
fourth  day  to  be  for  the  men's  and  women's 
meeting.  The  year  following  to  be  held 
at  Philadelphia  on  the  same  day  of  the 
same  month,  and  to  continue  the  same  time 
alternately  at  both  places. 

At  the  yearly  meeting,  1683  it  was 
agreed  that  the  one  monthly  meeting  here- 
tofore held  in  Bucks  county  be  divided  into 
two,  and  to  hold  a  quarterly  (quarterly 
meeting ) .  One  monthly  meeting  to  be 
held  about  Xeshaminah,  the  other  near  the 
river. 

Bucks  (county)  quarterly  meeting  was 
first  held  at  the  house  of  William  Biles,  the 
7th  of  the  3d  month,  1684,  and  at  the  sec- 
ond quarterly  meeting  it  was  agreed  that 
friends  ought  not  to  sell  rum  to  the 
Indians. 


A  record  of  the  29th  of  9th  month,  1686, 
states :  "A  woman's  quarterly  meeting  is 
settled  at  William  Puddle's  in  the  province 
of  West  Jersey,  and  county  of  Burlington, 
for  the  propagating  and  continuing  in  prac- 
tice that  good  order  established  among  us 
in  our  native  country  (viz)  Old  England, 
for  the  governing  and  good  ordering  of 
truth's  affairs,  which  hath  in  the  wisdom  of 
God  been  seen  and  yet  seem  meet  and  of 
necessity  to  be  practised. 

In  the  yearly  meeting  1688,  a  paper  was 
presented  by  some  German  Friends  con- 
cerning the  lawfulness  and  unlawfulness  of 
buying  and  selling  negroes.  It  was  ad- 
judged not  to  be  so  proper  for  the  meet- 
ing to  give  a  judgment  on  the  case,  it  hav- 
ing so  general  a  relation  to  many  other 
parts — and  therefore  at  present  thev  for- 
bear it.

AXSON  FAMILY 

Contributed  by  Dr.  J.   G.  B.  Bulloch. 

Family  of  the  Wife  of  Our  President. 
Arson. 

The  name  Axson  is  found  in  South  Caro- 
lina at  an  early  day,  for  in  1684,  among  the 
early  settlers,  the  names  of  Roger  and  Wil- 
liam Axson  appear. 

Among  the  baptisms  of  the  Independent 
Congregational  (Circular)  Church,  Charles- 
ton, S.  C,  1732-38,  we  find  Samuel  Axson, 
son  of  Samuel,  baptized  July  11,  1734;  the 
last  Samuel  Axson  being  the  pastor  or  as- 
sistant pastor  of  above  church. 

During  the  Revolutionary  War  we  find 
Samuel  Axson,  surgeon's  mate  ;  and  among 
the  first  physicians  to  practice  medicine  in 
Liberty  County.  Georgia,  the  names  of 
Doctors  Dunwody  and  Axson  occur. 

Of  this  family  came  the  Rev.  I.  S.  K. 
Axson,  a  native  of  Charleston,  S.  C,  born 
October  3,  1813.  He  removed  to  Liberty 
County,  Georgia,  and  pt'eached  his  first 
sermon  at  Midway  church  on  April  29-, 
1836,  becoming  eventually  the  pastor  of  this 
historic  old  church.  Dr.  Axson  subse- 
quently removed  to  Savannah,  Ga.,  ac- 
cepting a  call  as  pastor  to  the  Independent 
Presbyterian  Church,  one  of  the  finest 
churches  in  the  city,  whose  congregation 
was  of  the  elite  of  that  city.  There  for 
many  years  Dr.  Axson  labored,  filling  the

HERALDRY. 

Contributed  by  Mrs.  Overton  E.  Ennis. 

If  we  wish  to  go  to  the  origin  of  Heraldry 
we  must  begin  with  the  Bible,  and  like  the 
order  of  Masons,  trace  it  from  Moses  and 
the  Patriarchs. 

The  Israelites  who  could  not  read  or 
write,  were  enjoined  to  put  up  marks  or 
symbols,  showing  the  important  events  in 
their  history.  These  in  time  became  signs 
and  marks  on  their  banners  and  clothing, 
and  were  thus  handed  down. 

To  show  the  early  date  of  some  of  these 
symbols,  I  give  here  a  Brigantine,  or  Coat 
or  Arms  of  a  Brigandine  Tribe,  as  worn 
in  Roman  Britain  B.  C.  55. 

Cocibelon.  King  of  Cameledon  (Colches- 
ter), being  vanquished  by  Caesar,  concluded 
a  peace  with  him,  bv  which  his  Kingdom 
became  tributary  to  Rome.  He  made  pres- 
ents to  Cresar.  among  which  was  a  brigan- 
dine or  royal  Coat  of  Arms,  ornamented 
with  pearls  of  the  country. 

That  trophy  was  sent  to  Rome  where  it 
was  consecrated  to  Venus  in  the  Capitol, 
on  account  of  Julius  Caesar  (reputed  as 
being  descended  from  that  Goddess),  hav- 
ing given  the  war  cry.  "Venus  Capitolina," 
when  marching  against  the  Britons. 

The  Brigandine  was  hence  represented  on 
tapestry  and  pictures  which  have  been  de- 
scribed in  epic  poems  in  honor  of  that  Em- 
peror. That  war  dress  from  the  Oriental 
coat  of  mail  with  scales,  had  been  worked 
by  some  Queen  of  the  Brig-antes,  a  people 
in  the  north  of  Britain — (York  and  North- 
umberland), and  it  exhibited  the  following 
emblems — shells  and  fishes  ;  maritime  tokens 


of  the  Brig-antes  who  inherited  the  shores ; 
a  brigantine  or  boat  used  by  the  pirates  of 
that  tribe;  a  beaver  or  castor,  an  animal 
which  abounded  on  the  northern  coasts. 

The  Brigantes  depicted  on  their  targets 
the  bear,  or  its  head  as  a  local  badge  of 
nothern  forests.  Most  of  the  rustical 
charges  of  the  primitive  Britons  have  been 
revived  in  armorial  bearings  from  that  bar- 
barism. 

The  eagle  had  been  adopted  by  the 
Romans  as  an  heraldic  emblem  centuries 
before  the  discovery  of  America. 

The  first  arms  of  London,  55  years  be- 
fore Christ,  showed  the  Liberty  Cap  and 
the  Eagle,  with  the  monogram  "S.  P.  Q. 
R.."  expressing  the  government  of  the  Sen- 
ate and  the  people  of  Rome,  of  which  Lon- 
don was  then  a  part,  as  being  a  Roman 
city. 

The  first  symbols  used  by  the  Druids  in 
the  first  government  of  the  city  were  the 
wrolf  and  eagle,  Romulus  assuming  the  eagle 
of  Jupiter,  and  Remus  the  wolf,  which  was 
the  Roman  standard.  The  second  govern- 
ment, under  Julius  Csesar.  was  also  Roman. 
L "nder  the  third  government  London  had  a 
"Prefect."  from  the  Latin  "Prsetor,"  or 
Roman  judge,  who  held  court  at  the  "Pre- 
torium"  or  Judgment  Hall,  at  the  Temple 
of   Isis.  near  the   River  Thames. 

Xow  beginning  with  the  Phrygian  cap 
of  freedom,  with  the  eagle  and  monogram  ; 
these  were  placed  upon  a  pole,  painted  blue 
and  purple  like  twisted  ribbons,  the  purple 
representing  the  Roman  Senate  and  no- 
bility, the  blue  the  Roman  people  and  army, 
including  the  Briton-. 

The  sword  lying  beneath  the  cap  was  the 
svmbol  of  justice  and  of  the  power  of  the 
chief  magistrate.  It  was  also  called  the 
"Sword  of  Mercy."  The  wooden  mace  or 
club  was  also  carried  before  the  prefect  as 
a  deadly  weapon  or  attribute  of  his  right 
of  putting  to  death  those  convicts  or  slaves 
who  were  not  to  be  honored  with  death  by 
the  sword. 

The  club  was  of  olive  wood,  a  symbol  of 
Hercules,  and  ornamented  with  gold  and 
silver,  carved  with  imperial  emblems,  and 
always  figured  in  armorial  bearings  of  the 
city  under  the  Roman  prefect.

BELIEF  IN  THINGS  UNSEEN 
A  few  years  ago  a  young  Jew  said  he 
was  disposed  to  be  a  follower  of  Ingersoll, 
and  not  to  believe  or  accept  anything  he 
could  not  see,  hear  or  prove.  Had  you  a 
father?  Yes!  How  do  you  know  it?  I 
;a\v  him  and  sat  upon  his  knee.  Had  you 
a  grandfather?  Yes!  How  do  you  know 
vou  had  a  grandfather?  Did  you  ever  see 
him?  Xo!  Did  you  ever  sit  upon  his 
knee?  Xo!  Yet  you  believe  you  had  a 
grandfather  whom  you  never  saw  as  firmly 
as  you  believe  vou  had  a  father  whom  you 
heard,  saw  and  caressed.  Yes!  He  said 
the  argument  was  unanswerable.  He  was 
compelled  to  believe  in  things  unseen,  un- 
heard and  unfelt. — En.

CORRECTTOXS. 

In  the  January  Quarterly,  "Accessions  to 
Library,"  the  name  "Miss  Elizabeth  Clifford 
Nash"  should  be  Miss  Elizabeth  Clifford 
Xeff.  Miss  Xeff's  little  book  on  Heraldry- 
makes  up  in  quality  what  it  lacks  in  size. — 
Ed. 


In  the  April  Quarterly,  "Ohio  County 
Virginia  Records"  Mr.  Caldwell  writes  that 
there  is  an  error.  "That  James  Fugate  and 
Jeremiah  Williamson  were  the  only  ones 
that  refuced  to  take  the  oath  to  Virginia  in 
1777  That  all  the  other  names  on  that 
'refusing  list'  were  loyal  to  their  State." 
So  please  make  in  the  April  Quarterly  this 
correction.  The  editor  regrets  this  error 
in  the  manuscript  and  is  pleased  to  correct. 
He  thought  at  the  time  that  the  list  of 
Tories  was  entirely  too  long.

One  may  note  Grimus'  name  both  as  king 
and  as  husband  of  Beatrice,  da.  of  Mal- 
colm II.  The  reason  his  name  does  not 
usually  appear  in  lists  of  the  Kings  of 
Scotland  is  because  his  authority  never  ex- 
tended over  the  whole  country.  Yet  how 
strong  was  his  blood  in  Robert  II  (Stuart), 
he,  Robert  II  being  a  descendant  of 
Grimns  on  both  father's  and  mother's  side. 
How  the  name  of  Stuart  calls  up  the 
beautiful  and  romantic  side  of  British 
character,  legend,  story,  tradition,  roman- 
tic ballads,  loyalty,  sentiment,  the  whole 
vista  of  what  is  most  interesting  in  the  past 
history  of  our  race.  Someone  said  of 
Charles  Edward  Stuart,  "He  had  every 
gift  that  could  win  allegiance."  Is  there 
another  encomium  that  has  ever  "been  ut- 
tered or  written,  that  any  reader  would 
prefer  to  deserve  to  that  one? — Ed.

NOTICE. 

Amendment  to  constitution,  proposed  by 
Dr.  J.  G.  B.  Bulloch,  May  2.  1914.  To  be 
voted  on  Oct.  3,   1914: 

"That  a  National  Chaplain  he  added  to 
the  list  of  officers  of  the  Society,  the  duties 
to  be  those  usual  to  such  officer." 


Recently  a  Xew  York  City  schoolmam 
asked  a  class  of  small  boys:  "Can  any  one 
of  you  tell  me  how  many  seasons  there  are 
in  a  year?" 

A  shrewd  looking  youth  of  Semitic  lin- 
eage promptly  stood  up  and  exclaimed 
"Two." 

Teacher,  rather  puzzled  and  surprised. 
"Pray!    What  are  they?" 

'"Busy  season  and  dull  season." 

Now  it  is  pretty  safe  to  predict  that  in 
that  boy's  future  is  to  be  seen  one  of  the 
merchants  of  our  country:  because  at  his 
early  stage  of  life  he  views  some  the  sea- 
sons of  the  year  from  a  trader's  standpoint. 
So  it  is  in  the  field  of  genealogy.  Among 
those  who  view  the  changes  and  workings- 
out  of  the  human  race  on  this  earth  from 
the  viewpoint  of  their  stock,  ancestry  and 
inherited     qualities,     must     be     found    our 


historians  and  prophets.  The  past  is  the 
only  measure  we  have  for  the  future.  We 
are  accustomed  to  read  with  wonder  and 
astonishment  the  prophecies  of  Elijah  and 
Elisha,  because  we  know  what  followed, 
and  how  true  were  their  warnings  of  what 
was  to  come.  These  same  things  can  be 
just  as  easily  said  to-day,  and  any  deep- 
thinking  genealogist  of  1914  can  be  an 
Elijah  or  Elisha  if  he  wishes  to,  and  speak 
words  just  as  sure  of  fulfillment. 

The  United  States  was  founded  by  men. 
who,  whatever  may  have  been  their  idio- 
syncracies  in  the  East  or  their  peculiarities 
in  the  South,  were  absolutely  at  one  in  the 
belief,  determination  and  faith,  that  they 
had  a  mission  to  perform  on  this  earth, 
that  they  had  the  ability  to  do  it,  and  that 
it  must  and  would  be  done ;  and  that  they 
would  teach  their  offspring  to  continue 
the  structure  of  which  they  had  laid  the 
foundation.  We  read  much  and  speculate 
much  on  what  has  become  of  the  Ten 
Tribes  of  Israel ;  but  all  we  get  out  of  that 
reading  and  speculation  is  the  single  word 
Lost!  That  one  syllable  Lost!  will  be  the 
epitaph  of  this  nation,  when  it  strays  too 
far  from  the  teachings  and  examples  of  its 
founders.  The  Good  Book  both  in  Testa- 
ments Old  and  New,  says:  "Blessed  are 
the  meek,  for  they  shall  inherit  the  earth." 
Who  are  the  meek?  "Those  who  quietly 
submit  themselves  to  God  and  comply  with 
his  designs."  The  same  Divine  Authority 
promises  long  life  to  those  who  honor  their 
parents.  This  applies  to  nations  as  well  as 
it  does  to  individuals. — En. 


The  State  of  West  Virginia  is  to  be  con- 
gratulated on  having  established  a  State 
Department  of  Genealogy.  We  hope  more 
States  will  follow  her  example.  Someone 
said,  "Who  shall  respect  a  people  who  do 
not  themselves -respect  their  own  blood?" 
West  Virginians  evidently  do  respect  them- 
selves and  so  are  entitled  to  the  respect  of 
others.  The  National  Genealogical  Society 
is  to  be  congratulated  in  having  one  of  its 
members,  Mrs.  Livia  Simpson-Pafrenbar- 
ger  in  charge  of  that  department  as  State 
Genealogist.  Mrs.  Simpson-Peffenbarger 
has  many  other  titles  of  distinction  besides 
that  of  State  Genealogist,  being-  a  politician 
of  some  note,  and  fully  identified  with  all 
historical  matters,  and  a  judicial  assistant 
to  her  husband,  a  Justice  of  the  Supreme 
Court  of  her  and  his  State. — Ed. 


Once  more  the  editor  begs  to  call  atten- 
tion to  the  fact  that  there  is  no  manuscript 
coming  to  hand  from  the  East,  a  section  of 
our  country  so  prolific  in  colonial  and 
genealogical  lore.  Will  not  some  of  our 
contributors  north  of  Mason  and  Dixon's 
line  send  us  something  of  interest?  Judg- 
ing from  recent  receipts  would  say  geneal- 
ogy was  waning  in  the  East  and  fulling  in 
the  South.

By  Mrs.  Leonore  Caldwell  Hill 

Andrea  Palladio  Caldwell  of  Maryland, 
born  in  Baltimore  December  30,  1835,  son 
01  William  Quirl  Caldwell,  of  near-Belair, 
Harford  Co.,  and  his  wife  Cora  Ann  Ed- 
wards, and  grand-son  of  John  Caldwell  of 


Derry,   Ireland,    who    was    born    Nov.    15, 

1773- 

Andrea  Palladio  Caldwell  followed  his 
father's  profession  for  some  years  as  an 
Architect,  named  his  son  after  that  famous 
artist  and  architect,  Andrea  Palladio,  who 
succeeded  Michael  Angelo  as  Architect  of 
St.  Peter's  church,  Rome. 

Some  of  the  early  most  notable  buildings 
in  Baltimore  City  were  designed  by  the 
Caldwell  firm.  The  old  Odd  Fellows  Hall, 
that  formerly  stood  at  the  corner  of 
Lexington  and  Gay  streets.  The  first 
grand  wooden  bridges  that  spanned  Jones 
Falls,  and  Leakins  Protestant  Episcopal 
church,  Lexington  near  Pine  street,  are  fair 
examples  of  their  work. 

In  the  early  part  of  the  Civil  War,  the 
two  sons  of  William  Quirl  Caldwell, 
namely  Andrea  Palladio  and  his  brother 
William  Quirl.  Jr.,  made  all  the  ground 
plans  and  elevations  of  all  the  temporary 
forts  in  and  around  Baltimore  City,  giving 
number  of  men  and  horses  to  be  accommo- 
dated in  each,  also  plans  of  the  Govern- 
ment hospital. 

Some  years  later  Andrea  Palladio  Cald- 
well left  his  father's  office  and  entered  the 
mercantile  field,  which  he  has  conducted 
very  successfully  to  this  date  of  June  I, 
1914.  His  family  consists  of  three  sons 
and  two  daughters ;  Mary  Josephine,  died

gusta, who  married  Charles  Herbert  Pear- 
son, of  Baltimore  City,  died  August  30, 
1894,  left  issue  one  daughter  Grace  Cald- 
well Pearson,  Charles  Rowland,  married 
and  now  resides  in  Pittsburgh.  Pa.  An- 
drea Palladio  (third)  married  and  resides

Ireland.  Were  these  two  men  named 
James  McElvvee  the  same  or  related  .J 

Henry  Brown,  of  Talbottom,  Ga.,  m. 
Catherine  Taylor :  Their  children,  Thomas, 
Henry;  Martha,  m.  Daniel  Young;  Sara 
Ann,  m.  Barney  Hill;  Malinda,  m.  Cyrus 
Robinson  ;  it  was  their  oldest  child,  Man- 
Brown  who  married  Joseph  Brown  as 
above.  Was  Catharine  Taylor  the  dau.  of 
William  Taylor?  Her  ancestors  were 
Quakers  and  came  to  Ga.  from  northern 
\  a.,  by  way  of  X.  C. 

I  have  tried  very  hard  to  get  this  Mc- 
Elvvee line,  and  also  the  branch  line. 

My  grandmother  Ann  Eliza  Short,  m. 
David  X.  Buckhalter ;  she  had  but  one  bro. 
Branch  Short,  and  one  sister  Sarah  Short. 
Tradition  says  that  a  well  known  bridge  in 
Ya.  was  near  a  Short  homestead.  Gov. 
Oscar  Branch  Colquitt  of  Texas,  my  first 
cousin  is  the  son  of  Ann  Eliza  ( Buck- 
halter) Colquitt;  the  names  are  brought 
down  but  family  records  are  limited. 

Wanted — ancestry  and  data  of  these  an- 
cestors :  McElvvee,  Branch  and  Short ;  also 
names  of  the  wives  and  dates  of  their 
marriages. — M.  E.  S. 

177.  Montgomery — Wanted  the  names 
of  the  parents  of  Ann  Montgomery,  of  the 
Cumberland  Valley,  who  married  in  1784, 
Jeremiah  Murrv  of  Westmoreland  Co.,  Pa. 
— M.  C.  O. 

148.  Cynthia,  b.  about  1800,  wife  of 
Allen  Jennings,  was  the  dau.  of  Frederick 
(not  of  Matthew)  Varnes  (or  Yarner). 

149.  The  name  is  Patman.  This 
family  went  from  Ya.  to  Oglethorpe  Co., 
Ga..  thence  to  Campbell  Co..  Ga.  Tradi- 
tion claims  the  Patmans  are  descendants 
of  Pocahontas.  Is  there  a  list  or  genealogy 
of  her  descendants  or  an  Association  of 
them' 

26.  The  book  inquired  about  is  prob- 
ably one  called  Unclaimed  Money,  by 
Sydney  H.  Preston,  published  London,  80 
pages.  This  book  gives  some  unclaimed 
estates  and  missing  heirs. — A.  L.  P. 

Where  can  records  of  soldiers  of  the 
Revolution  who  lived  or  died  in  Georgia 
be  found  ?— G.  M.  T. 

Georgia  is  perhaps  as  wanting  in  Colon- 
ial and  Revolutionary  records  as  any  other 
of  the  States  that  took  part  in  the  Revo- 
lution. Parts  of  the  State  were  long 
overrun  by  the  British.  Many  records  were 
destroyed,  and  few  of  those  that  remained 
were  put  into  permanent  shape  at  the  time. 


so  that  surprisingly  little  is  known  about 
the  men  of  that  period,  thus  writes  Mr. 
A.  B.  Caldwall,  author  of  "Men  Dt' 
Mark  in  Georgia,"  who  also  suggests  that 
the  late  Dr.  Geo.  C.  Smith,  published  some 
years  ago  his  "'Georgia  People,"  which  in- 
cludes a  list  of  Revolutionary  soldiers  of 
the  line,  who  were  granted  lands.  The 
fact  that  this  list  has  never  been  arranged 
alphabetically,  nor  indexed,  detracts  con- 
siderably from  its  usefulness.  Will  not 
some  member  of  the  X.  G.  S.  undertake 
this  work?

rich  mine  of  historical  information,  authen- 
tic and  verified,  from  public  and  private 
records,  and  from  unpublished  manu- 
script hitherto  inaccessible  brought  together 
by  years  of  patient  research  in  this  coun- 
try and  from  European  sources.

Empire  in  1778;  Yon  Brombaugh  Coats- 
of-Arms,  old  homesteads,  surveyor's  war- 
rant of  1736,  surveys,  petitions,  agree- 
ments, marriage  certificates,  immigrant 
lists,  bible  records,  portraits,  churches,  re- 
unions, etc.     Price  $8.00. 

Much  information  is  given  of  many  im- 
migrants, as  well  as  the  dates  of  settle- 
ments, removals,  births,  deaths  and  mar- 
riages of  many  allied  families. 

An  unusually  comprehensive  and  con- 
venient system  of  indexing  is  used.  Of

SIDE-LIGHTS  ON  MARYLAND  HIS- 
TORY, with  over  one  hundred  sketches  of 
Colonial  Maryland  families  of  importance, 
is  the  fascinating  title  of  Airs.  Hester  Dor- 
sey  Richardson's  valuable  new  book.  Price. 
S5.00.  Two  volumes,  5'2  by  8  inches, 
make  a  convenient  and  useable  size  for 
ready  reference,  as  this  historic  and  genea- 
logical collection  stronglv  appeals  to  all 
interested  in  Colonial  Maryland.  The 
author  has  woven  in  most  attractive  style 
the  important  historic  events  around  the 
men  and  women  of  those  times  whose  de- 
scendants are  today  so  eagerly  seeking  in- 
formation, and  has  established  through 
original  investigations  the  high  social  and 
educational  as  well  as  moral  statiK  of  the 
early  settlers.  The  view-point  of  the 
author  being  the  character  of  the  founders 
of  Maryland,  these  researches  uphold  the 
best  traditions  of  the  old  Commonwealth. 
and  shed  new-  lustre  upon  the  pioneers 
individually  and  collectively.  These  an- 
cestors appear  to  re-people  the  early  Prov- 


ince as  the  part  played  by  each  in  the 
formative  period  is  in  a  large  measure  set 
forth,  from  the  first  settlement  of  Lord 
Baltimore's  little  kingdom,  the  birthplace 
of  religious  freedom,  and  the  scene  of 
feudal  institutions  as  ancient  as  those  of 
the  Saxon  thane,  as  Mrs.  Richardson 
phrases  it. 

Vol.  II,  consists  of  genealogical  and 
biographical  sketches  of  more  than  100  of 
the  oldest  families  of  Maryland.  Among 
these  may  be  named:  Addison,  Beall, 
Belt,  Bennett,  Bladen,  Blakiston,  Brent, 
Briscoe,  Brooke,  Burgess,  Boyd,  Bord- 
ley,  Bosnian,  Brandt,  Brashears,  Browne 
(2  families),  Calvert,  Carroll.  Chap- 
line,  Chew,  Clagett,  Contee,  Cromwell, 
Covington,  Darnell,  Davis,  De  Courcy, 
Digges,  Dorsey  (2  families),  Duvall,  Den- 
wood,  Fairfax,  of  Maryland :  Fenwick, 
Gale,  Gerald.  Gist,.  Goldsborough,  Gassa- 
way,  Greenberry,  Greene,  Hall,  Hammond 
(2  families),  Hanson,  Harwood,  Hatton, 
Henry,  Herman,  Hynson,  Holland,  Hooper, 
Howard,  Hanslap,  Hemsley,  Humphries, 
Jackson,  Key,  King,  Knott,  Lake.  Lee, 
Lloyd,  Lowe,  McAtee.  Magruder,  May- 
nard,  Maddox,  Mercer,  Moore,  Xeale. 
Nicholson,  Ogle,  Paca,  Plater,  Plowden, 
Polk,  Porter,  Powell  (2  families),  Pryor. 
Randall,  Richardson,  Rider,  of  Somerset; 
Ridgely  (2  families),  Rousby,  Sewall, 
Spencer,  Steuart,  Stevens,  Thomas  (2 
families),  Tilden,  Tilghman,  Tillman, 
Toadvin.  Van  Swearinger,  Walker,  War- 
field,  Williams,  Worthington. 

The  friends  of  Mrs.  Richardson  are  re- 
joicing at  the  instant  recognition  which  the 
book  met,  it  having  been  placed  at  once  in 
the  leading  institution;  of  learning  as  well 
as  in  the  libraries  of  the  State,  and  re- 
ceived the  highest  commendations  from  the 
dignitaries  of  State  and  Church  as  well  as 
of  the  press.  Gov.  Warfield  voiced  his  ap- 
preciation in  these  words:  "I  think  it  is 
one  of  the  most,  if  not  the  most  valuable 
contribution  that  has  been  made:  to  the 
history  of  Maryland,  and  it  should  be  in 
the  hands  of  every  Marylander  and  every 
descendant  of  an  early  settler  of  the  State." 

A  glance  at  the  index  of  Vol.  I,  dis- 
closes many  important  lists,  many  not  be- 
fore published ;  among  them  are  noted : 
"The  King's  Rebels"  (names  of  the  ban- 
ished Scots),  "The  Scotch  Exiles"  (names 
of  the  banished  Scots),  "Old  Town  of  the 
Eastern     Shore"    (with    names    of     earlv 


14 


families),  "Proprietors  and  their  Repre- 
sentatives" (Colonial  governors,  etc.. 
named),  "Lords  of  Manors  in  Colonial 
Maryland"  ( with  their  original  land  sur- 
veys), "Maryland  Colonial  Militia"  (in- 
cluding original  muster  roll  found  in  Eng- 
land). Names  of  one  thousand  early  set- 
tlers in  Maryland  with  their  land  surveys, 
the  Sons  of  Liberty,  many  names  of  patriot 
given.  The  society  of  the  Cincinnati  in 
Maryland,  with  the  names  of  the  first  mem- 
bers ;  an  inaccurate  list  of  the  Ark  and  the 
Dove  Adventurers,  and  many  other  mat- 
ters of  interest. 


THE  HISTORY  OF  GEORGIA 
Containing  brief  sketches  of  the  most 
remarkable  events  up  to  the  present  day 
(  17S4).  by  Capt.  Hugh  McCall.  Reprinted 
by  A.  B.  Caldwell,  publisher,  Atlanta,  Ga.. 
who  says :  "This  is  a  reprint,  not  a  revi- 
sion." The  first  volume  of  McCall's  History 
was  in  181 1,  the  second  volume  in  1816. 

Major  McCall  was  nearly  a  man  at  the 
close  of  the  Revolution,  later  a  gallant 
officer  in  the  regular  army.  Fie  learned 
devotion  to  duty,  and  from  a  sense  of  duty 
combined  with  love  of  country,  he  wrote 
his  History  of  Georgia,  while  suffering 
constant  and  tormenting  pain,  and  confined 
to  a  roller  chair  by  his  physical  disabili- 
ties. Having  served  faithfully  in  the  armies 
of  his  country,  he  did  not  want  the  record 
of  what  was  truly  its  heroic  period  to  be 
lost,  and  in  so  far  as  he  could  preserve  that 
record,  in  spite  of  age  and  feebleness  and 
pain,  he  did  so. 

There  are  many  curious  phrases  in  the 
book,  many  familiar  words,  the  spelling  of 
which  does  not  look  familiar.  There  are  a 
number  of  statements  not  altogether  accu- 
rate in  detail.  But  I  have  made  no  changes. 
I  prefer  to  give  our  readers  the  work 
exactly  as  it  came  from  Major  McCall's 
hand,  written  at  a  time  when  a  great  many 
men  who  had  been  soldiers  of  the  Revolu- 
tion were  yet  in  the  prime  of  life.  Not- 
withstanding its  defects  of  punctuation,  of 
grammar  and  of  spelling,  it  is  a  work  of 
intense  interest  to  Georgians,  and  it  is  re- 
produced exactly  as  it  was  first  printed, 
ninety-eight  years  ago  (except  that  the  two 
volumes  are  included  in  one),  with  the  idea 
that  it  will  be  helpful  to  the  Georgians  of 
this  day  to  read  of  what  the  Georgians  of 
that  day  did  and  suffered. 

And  thus  is  placed  at  the  service  of  the 
historian  and  genealogist  an  invaluable 
book  long  out  of  print. 


Hugh  McCall  was  born  Feb.  17,  1767, 
in  North  Carolina;  died  June  10,  1824,  was 
buried  in  the  Old  Colonial  cemetery,  Sa- 
vannah, Georgia.  His  brother  Thomas,  in 
a  sketch  of  the  McCall  family  written  in 
1829,  mentions  that  the  McCall,  Harris  and 
Calhoun  families,  passed  from  Scotland  to 
the  northeast  of  Ireland  in  the  same  ship; 
there  remained  for  two  entire  generations ; 
then,  the  three  families  migrated  to  Penn- 
sylvania ;  there  the  grandfather  James  Mc- 
Call married  fanet,  eldest  daughter  of 
James  Harris ;  after  some  years  the  three 
families  moved  to  Xew  River  or  the  Little 
Kenhoway  River,  in  the  western  part  of 
Virginia,  from  whence  they  were  later 
driven  by  the  Indians,  after  several  of  the 
Calhouns  had  been  killed. 


Gandmother  Stories  from  the  Land  of 
the  Used-to-Be,  by  Mrs.  Howard  Meri- 
wether Lovett;  A.  B.  Caldwell,  publisher. 
These  stories  quaintly  and  delightfully  told, 
are  the  result  of  years  of  patient  research, 
and  throw  additional  light  on  many  histori- 
cal events.  The  Columbian  Bookstore,  81- 
8.3  Whitehall  street,  Atlanta,  Georgia,  is 
handling  a  specially  illustrated  introduc- 
tory, $1.50  edition.  While  primarily  writ- 
ten for  children,  these  stories  are  of  much 
interest  to  their  elders.  Students  will  note 
that  Mrs.  Lovett  has  included  much  of 
little  known  history,  from  a  purely  south- 
ern standpoint,  of  war,  of  discovery  and  of 
invention.  It  is  a  Treasure  house  of  historic 
incidents  and  details,  of  devotion  to  ideals 
and  of  brave  self  sacrifices.  Memorials  of 
heroic  deeds  and  gifts  of  those  who  have 
benefited  mankind  by  their  inventive  gen- 
ius are  ennobling  incentives  to  others  to 
aim  high  and  to  keep  the  traditions  of  an 
honored  race  inviolate.

LETTER  FROM  MRS.  J.  VAX  ZAXDT 

O'XEIL. 
To  Mrs.  L.  R.  Messenger.  Charter  Member 

D.  A.  R.,  Xational  Xumber  ~2. 
My  Dearie: 

Your  letter  of  Saturday  just  reached  me 
10  p.  m.  Monday.  I  hasten  to  reply  as  the 
time  is  short  before  presentation  day.  It 
is  a  charming  thought  to  give  the  little 
cushion  such  "center  stage"  position.  There 
are  several  bits  of  the  Dollv  Madison 
silk  left  just  the  shape  cut  by  her  for 
mother's  quilt.  I  will  try  to  lay  hands  on 
them  and  send  herewith  if  I  can  get  light 
enough  to  explore  the  trunk  tonight.  You 
might  make  something  to  take  the  place  of 
what  you  are  giving  away.  I  am  sorry  it 
is  faded,  but  considering  the  date,  about 
1842,  it  is  not  surprising. 

It's  odd — of  the  hundreds  of  things,  in- 
cluding a  lovely  fan  with  Jane  Henry's 
autograph  on  it  and  a  quilt  made  by  my  two 
great-great-grandmothers,  the  sisters  of 
Patrick  Henry — that  these  fragile  bits  of 
silk  only  remain  as  we  have  kept  house  in 
fourteen  cities  during  my  life.  It  is  surpris- 
ing anything  remains. 

Did   I    send   vou    the    little    storv   of   the 


16 


Henry  porcelains?  You  probably  remem- 
ber them.  They  have  only  been  out  of 
mother's  keeping  since  her  very  early  days 
long  enough  to  be  photographed  by  the 
Eagle.  As  the  mothers  title  it's  some  name 
as  the  boys  say,  "Jane  Henry  Meredith 
Cabell  Van  Zandt,"  an  accumulation  from 
the  ladies  of  the  Henry  line.  Jane  Henry, 
sister  of  Patrick,  married  Col.  Meredith. 
Mother  was  her  great-granddaughter,  the 
only  daughter  of  Col.  Edward  Cabell,  oldest 
son  of  William  Cabell  2d,  of  Union  Hill, 
Virginia.  His  mother  was  daughter  of 
Paul  Carrington.  one  of  the  eleven  members 
of  the  Committee  of  Safety  of  Virginia, 
and  his  father,  William  Cabell,  was  an- 
other member  of  this  body. 

Father  was  Nicholas  Biddle  Van  Zandt, 
son  of  a  Knickerbocker  who  came  to  Wash- 
ington with  the  Government  in  1800  as 
door  keeper  of  the  House  of  Representa- 
tives. I  think  he  remained  in  the  Capital 
through  every  administration  until  the  be- 
ginning of  the  war — sixty  years.  He  was 
present  when  General  Washington's  pic- 
ture was  taken  from  the  wall  and  sent  to 
the  Octagon  house.  His  wife,  Maria  South- 
all  Van  Zandt,  was  great  granddaughter 
of  Lucy  Henry  Wood,  younger  sister  of 
Patrick  Henry. 

My  parents  are  the  same  kin  to  Patrick 
Henry,  and  in  that  way  to  Mistress  Madi- 
son, who  introduced  them,  they  being 
among  her  favorite  young  cousins.  Mr. 
Van  Zandt  was  son  of  the  sister  of  Com. 
Nicholas  Biddle.  His  grandmother  was  a 
Schull  of  Philadelphia. 

I  guess  this  is  about  all  the  ancient  his- 
tory you  can  assimilate  at  one  sitting,  dear. 
As  to  father's  record,  he  was  appointed  by 
President  Tyler,  and  graduated  in  the  first 
class  at  Annapolis,  Md.  Fought  in  the 
Mexican  war — U.  S.  Frigate  Columbus. 
Had  nineteen  years  sea  service  out  of 
twenty-five  years  in  the  U.  S.  Navy,  the 
balance  of  the  time  being  in  charge  of 
Naval  Observatory:  sailed  with  Com. 
Maury  and  Farragut,  they  being  his  de- 
voted friends.  Resigned  and  joined  C.  S. 
N.  in  charge  of  Ordnance  at  Charleston, 
S.  C,  until  wounded  by  explosion  of  shell. 
( )n  recovery,  there  being  no  C.  S.  Navy 
remaining,  joined  the  Army  of  Northern 
Virginia  and  fortified  Dairy's  P.luff  below 
Richmond ;  was  arrested  the  dav  of  the 
surrender  and  held  prisoner  of  war  at 
Johnson's  Island,  Lake  Michigan,  for  eight- 


een months,  being  considered  quite  a  bad 
person  by  LTncle  Sam.  On  release  built 
a  steamboat  and  introduced  steam  on  the 
Staunton  River,  Virginia,  for  the  father- 
in-law  of  Tom  Nelson  Page,  .brother  of 
the  wife  of  J.  A.  Seddon,  Secretary  of  War, 
C.  S.  A. 

The  boat  is  still  running  and  is  the 
"Annie"  in  memory  of  my  cousin,  Annie 
Bruce,  the  first  wife  of  Page. 

Father  came  from  the  war  totally  deaf. 
He  was  in  the  Danville  railroad  and  kept 
the  time  for  the  entire  system  by  solar 
observation  until  his  sight  gave  out,  then  I 
was  big  enough  to  become  the  man  of  the 
family. 

Father's  sword,  hanging  near  bv,  was 
first  belted  on  him  by  Mistress  Doliy  ./hen 
he  had  to  "Go  South."  it  being  the  section 
of  his  mother  and  his  wife.  He  buried  it 
under  the  ashes  in  the  rear  of  his  house 
wrapped  in  the  American  flag  he  loved  so 
well.  There  it  laid  all  the  years  he  was 
from  home. 

I  am  so  glad  you  are  gaining  strength. 
The  spring  has  been  so  trying;  it  is  most 
encouraging  you  are  not  worse.  I  have 
some  malaria.  It  has  rained  for  a  month. 
Fur  an  hour  yesterday  the  fire  was  out, 
the  first  time  in  three  months.  Not  a  leaf 
is    open    yet    except    on    the    gooseberries. 

Dear,  I  must  close  for  I  must  be  up  be- 
times to  get  this  to  the  city.  God  bless  you. 
Mother  sends  thanks  for  your  pretty 
thought.  Lovinglv  yours,  Teanie,

The  lavender  side  is  a  bit  of  Dolly  Madi- 
son's frock,  given  mother  by  her  cousins, 
for  patch  work,  about  1842.  The  other  bit 
was  the  "second  dav  dress"  of  Jane  Henry, 
oldest  sister  of  Patrick,  who  married  the 
hero  of  Trenton  and  Princeton,  Col.  Sam'l 
Meredith.  Her  daughter  gave  it  to  mother, 
the  namesake  and  great  granddaughter  of 
the  wearer,  to  make  a  doll's  dress — this 
was  in  1836  and  the  silk  was  imnorted 
from  England  ahout  1768 — doesn't  look  its 
age,  but  will  hardly  hold  stitches.

XOTES  AXD  OBSERVATIONS  OX 
THE  AM  ERIC  AX  REVOLUTION. 

(Contributed  by  Mrs.  E.  S.  Fisher. 

Accordingly,  on  seventh-day  the  first  of 
second  month  (1777),  friends  that  were 
pressed  met  them  again,  and  one  of  them, 
J.  Lippincott,  said,  if  they  had  not  got  to- 
gether quietly  in  the  meeting  house,  it 
seemed  to  him  they  would  have  marched 
them  off.  Some  that  were  obliged  to  go. 
strove  hard  for  it  and  used  many  hard 
words.  However,  it  did  not  seem  to  me 
the  trial  would  be  very  hard  that  time, 
though  the  noise  and  commotion  were  very 
great.  The  captain  was  very  moderate  to 
our  friends.  He  and  some  of  them  went 
down  to  Haddon  Field  to  the  Governor,  and 
our  friends  got  released.  J.  Robert's  wagon 
was  pressed,  and  taken  from  the  meeting 
house,  this  day,  about  the  time  above  men- 
tioned. There  were  several  pressed  out  at 
Evesham,  and  some  about  Mount  Holly, 
and  taken  prisoners  up  to  the  General,  some 
had  a  right  among  friends.  It  was  said 
the  General  was  pretty  moderate  with  them, 
and  discharged  most  of  them,  excepting 
some  who  had  been  exercising  a  little. 

This  by  account  was  a  very  close  sifting 
time  with  them.  Some  were  cleared  on  ex- 
amination by  pleading  infirmity,  which  they 
had  been  subjected  to.  I  was  told,  some 
of  them,  when  they  came  back,  looked  as 
if  they  had  had  a  fit  of  sickness. 

This  was  a  very  trying  time,  to  many 
who  were  forced  to  leave  their  families 
in  a  very  sorrowful  manner.  At  the  time 
the  press  company  went  about  there  were 
several  very  comical  occurrences,  which  to 
relate  in  full,  would  seem  more  jocose  than 
serious.  People  being  in  great  fear,  took 
frights,  when  there  was  no  occasion,  and 
thus  false  alarms  were  raised  which  flew  so 
fast,  they  could  not  be  stopped  till  they  had 
spread  several  miles,  and  somethings  a  little 
remarkable  happened  to  some  young  men 


that  fled  to  get  out  of  this  trouble.     They 
met  with  losses  and  returned  home. 

Second  month  16th  day.  I  went  to 
Gloucester  jail  with  my  friend,  Joshua 
Evans,  to  see  our  friends,  Thomas  Redman 
and  Mark  Miller,  who  were  there  yet  con- 
fined. We  had  a  little  meeting  with  them, 
which  was  a  great  satisfaction.  The  new 
sheriff  was  with  us,  with  whose  company 
we  were  well  pleased,  he  being  very  courte- 
ous to  us  and  our  friends  in  prison,  and  we 
had  to  rejoice  together  in  that  love  which 
the  prison  walls  cannot  debar  us  from. 

Second  month,  21st.  There  was  an  un- 
common distemper  seemed  to  be  going  about 
at  this  time.  It  was  something  like  a  pleu- 
risv,  mostly  beginning  in  the  head,  and  so 
working  down  to  the  stomach,  of  which 
manv  were  suddenly  taken  away. 

Third  month.  6th  day.  The  powerful 
language  of  mortality  was  almost  daily 
sounded  in  our  ears.  About  this  time 
abundance  died  in  our  neighborhood.  \\  e 
heard  of  burials  almost  every  day.  There 
was  also  a  great  snow,  it  being  a  very  severe 
cold  time  and  difficult  travelling  anyhow 
so  that  we  heard  but  little  of  the  noise 
of  the  war  for  several  weeks. 

Third  month.  14th.  We  heard  of  burials 
almost  everv  day.  some  thought  it  was  the 
same  disorder  the  soldiers  died  so  fast  with, 
in  Philadelphia,  called  the  camp  fever.  The 
smallpox  and  measles  began  to  get  about, 
and  there  was  a  very  awful  language  in 
our  land  at  this  time,  though  the  cloud  of 
confusion  at  present  was  a  little  gone. 

Fourth  month.  15th  day.  Went  to  Eve- 
sham to  a  meeting  of  conference  concern- 
ing the  trials  of  the  times,  and  to  endeavor 
to  strengthen  one  another. 

Ninth  month,  nth  day.  There  was  al- 
most a  continual  roaring  of  cannon  down 
the  river,  below  Philadelphia,  and  a  dismal 
battle  fought  between  the  Americans  and 
the  English,  as  it  was  reported  a  great 
many  was  killed  and  wounded  on  both 
sides.     The  English  gained  the  victory. 


OFFICIAL  POSITIOXS  IN  COLOXIAL 

DAYS. 

(Contributed  by  Dr.  Bulloch.) 

There  is  little  realization  as  to  the  im- 
portance of  one  holding  an  official  position 
in  the  Colonial  period  and  there  seems  to 
be  a  misconception  in  regard  to  the  mat- 
ter, as  one  is  apt  to  jndge  these  various  of- 
fices held  by  the  Colonial  with  the  insig- 
nificant place  not  accorded  to  such  posi- 
tions as  Select  Men,  Constable,  Tax  Collec- 
tor, Sheriff,  Coroner,  etc.,  but  certainly  the 
position  held  by  "Ye  Worshipful"  Justice 
of  the  Peace  was  of  more  honor  than  a 
Representative  of  Congress  of  the  present 
time.  Where  office  is  distributed  amongst 
the  many  as  in  the  present  day  the  position 
assumes  less  importance!  In  Britain  these  ■ 
positions  were  undoubtedly  held  by  men  of 
some  importance  and  meant  more  than  at 
the  present  time  and  so  during  the  Colonial 
period  these  places  were  undoubtedly  filled 
bv  representative  citizens  and  not  as  now — 
by  many  of  less  importance.  In  Virginia 
we  find  that  members  would  leave  the  House 
of  Burgesses  to  accept  positions  of  what 
would  be  considered  of  minor  importance. 
In  the  Virginia  Colonial  Register  by  Stan- 
ard,  we  find  upon  a  casual  glance  of  the 
House  of  Burgesses  that  individuals  bearing 
ancient  Virginia  names  deliberately  left  the 
House  to  accept  positions  of  remuneration 
or  other  officers. 

We  find  the  following  positions  accepted : 
Clerkship,  2 ;  Surveyor  and  Searcher.  1  ; 
Tobacco  Inspector,  2 ;  Sheriff,  7 ;  Coroner, 
2;  County  Surveyor,  1.  It  is  said  that  one 
of  the  secretaries  of  the  Colonial  Dames 
will  not  accept  as  a  qualification  the  position 
of  Sheriff,  a  position  of  high  importance 
at  that  time.  This,  of  course,  shows  ignor- 
ance of  the  historical  and  official  position  of 
the  Sheriff  of  these  days.  The  office  of 
Constable  was  important.  In  fact  it  may 
be  said  that  all  these  positions  were  of 
such  note  that  men  of  standing,  gentlemen, 
were  glad  to  get  them,  and  that  the  posi- 
tions themselves  gave  influence  to  the 
holder  of  the  office.

"THE   FAMILY   OF   WHITEy 

OF 

MARYLAXP. 

By   Dr.  J.  G.  P..  Bulloch. 

The  distinguished  family  of  White,  of 
Maryland,  which  has  furnished  to  the 
country  such  eminent  men,  came  over  to 
Maryland  in  1801,  and  numbers  within  its 
fold  such  prominent  characters  as  Dr. 
John  Campbell  White,  Hon.  William  Pink- 
ney Whvte,  three  times  a  member  of  the 
United  States  Senate ;  John  Campbell 
White,  an  Episcopal  Clergyman ;  Campbell 
White  Pinkney,  Judge  Supreme  Court  of 
Baltimore  for  many  years,  and  Hon.  Henry 
White,  ambassador  to  France  and  to  Italy. 

This  family  is  connected  and  descended 
from  the  Hon.  William  Pinkney,  statesman 
and  orator  of  Maryland;  the  Ridgeleys, 
Dorseys,  Williamses  and  others,  and  the 
branch  of  the  family  now  residing  in  Bal- 
timore is  represented  by  numerous  de- 
scendents. 

The  ancestor  of  this  familv  was  the 
Rev.  William  White,  of  Belfast,  Ireland, 
who  married  and  had:  Rev.  Thomas 
White,  b.  1700,  and  who  married  Jane 
Campbell,  who  is  stated  to  be  of  the  family 
of  Campbells  of  Argyll.  The  son  of  this 
last  couple  was  Rev.  Robert  White,  1725- 
1772,  who  was  ordained  Presbyterian  min- 
ister in  1755.  He  married  Jane  Thomp- 
son, a  cousin,  who  is  stated  to  be  the  aunt 
of   John    Campbell,    Lieutenant-General   of 


the  Isle  of  Jersey,  a  relative  of  the  Duke 
of  Argyll,  so  that  the  family  of  White  is 
descended  on  both  sides  from  Campbell,  of 
Argyll. 

Rev.  Robert  White  and  Jane  Thompson 
had  ten  children,  but  only  one — Dr.  John 
Campbell  White — reached  to  the  years  of 
maturity. 

Dr.  John  Campbell  White,  b.  in  Ireland, 
1757;  married  Dec.  25,  1778,  Elizabeth 
Getty. 

Dr.  White  was  an  Irish  patriot  who  op- 
posed union  with  England,  and  was  one  of 
the  United  Irishmen  of  1798.  We  thus 
see  this  patriot  descended  from  generations 
of  ancestors  of  position  in  Ireland,  at  last 
leaving  his  native  home  because  he  would 
not  accede  to  a  union  of  which  he  did  not 
approve.  Coming  over  to  Baltimore,  Md., 
in  1801  he  thus  became  the  first  American 
ancestor  of  this  eminent  family.  The  issue 
of  above  marriage  were : 

I.  Robert   White. 

II.  John  Campbell  White.

Ordained  a  Lutheran  clergyman  Oct.  25, 
1770;  took  charge  of  a  parish  in  New  York 
City,  where  his  piety,  education,  eloquence 
and  polished  manners  speedily  gave  him  a 
reputation,  but,  because  of  his  ardent  whig 
principles  and  pronounced  patriotism  he 
was  obliged  to  flee  when  the  British  oc- 
cupied that  city.  He  then  assisted  his 
father  in  Pennsylvania,  but  March  2,  1779, 
the  Legislature  of  Pennsylvania  elected  him 
a  delegate  to  the  Continental  Congress,  and 
renewed  the  appointment  the  next  year, 
when  he  became  ineligible  for  further 
service.  Wras  then  elected  to  the  State 
Legislature  from  Philadelphia,  and  became 
its  Speaker.  In  1787,  was  a  delegate  to 
the  State  Convention  to  consider  the  Consti- 
tution of  the  United  States  and  act  upon  its 
ratification,  of  which  body  he  was  president. 
Was  elected  a  member  of  the  first  Congress. 
where  he  became  the  first  Speaker  of  the 
United  States  Congress,  and  was  elected  to 
the  Speakership  a  second  time  by  the  third 
Congress.      After    leaving    Congress,    was 


appointed  Register  of  the  Land  Office, 
which  position  he  held  until  his  death. 

Among  his  descendants  and  connections 
of  note  were: 

William  Augustus  Muhlenberg,  D.  D.,  a 
grandson,  b.  1796;  d.  April  8,  1877;  unmar- 
ried. 

Graduate  of  the  University  of  Pennsyl- 
vania, 1815;  ordained  a  minister  of  the 
Protestant  Episcopal  church  in  1817.  He 
was  a  man  of  pre-eminent  piety,  beloved 
by  all.  In  1827  he  began  the  establishment 
of  a  Christian  and  church  school  for  the 
education  of  boys — Flushing  Institute  and 
St.  Paul's  College  on  Long  Island.  In  his 
fiftieth  year  he  commenced  his  work  in  the 
city  of  New  York  by  founding  there  the 
Church  of  the  Holy  Communion ;  in  1845 
he  organized  the  first  Protestant  Sister- 
hood in  the  United  States  and  started  many 
charitable  institutions  which  culminated  in 
the  great  St.  Luke's  Hospital. 

In  1866  he  undertook  the  last  great 
work  of  his  life,  the  establishment  on 
Long  Island  of  a  Christian  rural  community 
where  the  worthy  poor  might  escape  from 
the  horrors  of  Xew  York  tenement  life, 
which  he  named  "St.  Johnland,"  which  has 
since  developed  into  a  beautiful  village. 

He  was  the  author  of  many  noted  hymns 
such  as  "I  Would  Not  Live  Always,"  "Like 
Noah's  Weary  Dove,"  "Saviour,  Who  by

182.  Scholl-Sexo.  Information  as  to 
any  descendants  of  Solomon  Scholl ;  of 
Catherine  Scholl  (m.  Geo.  Smith),  his  sis- 
ter; and  of  Magdalena  Scholl  (m.  Michael 
Seno),  another  sister;  and  of  Eliza  Seno 
( m.  John  Phillips),  Frederick  Seno,  Wil- 
liam Seno,  Julia  Ann  Seno,  and  Hannah 
Seno  (m.  John  Bait) — children  of  Magda- 
lena. 

Soloman.  Catherine  and  Magdalena  were 
three  of  six  children  born  to  Peter  and 
Catherine  ( )  Scholl,  of  Milford  Town- 
ship, Bucks  Co.,  Pa.  Peter  died  in  1734. 
A  power  of  attorney,  recorded  at  Doyles- 
town,  Pa.,  in  1836  (1736  ( ?)  )  from  Solo- 
mon Scholl,  empowers  John  Scheetz 
(Schitz),  of  Milford  Tp.,  to  receive  Solo- 
mon's share  of  his  father's  estate,  and  to 
forward  the  same.  This  paper  was  ex- 
ecuted at  Lancaster,  the  county  seat,  of 
Fairfield  Co..  Ohio,  and  gives  that  county 
as  Solomons  residence. 

I  have  failed  to  find  any  trace  of  said 
Magdalena's  children  or  of  Catherine. 
Found  Scholls  in  Fairfield  Co.,  Ohio,  but 
they  are  not  of  this  family ;  found  a  Solo- 
mon   Scholl    there,   but   of   other   ancestry.

The  reader  of  these  pages  may  think 
we  pay  too  much  attention  to  the  past ;  and 
we  Americans  are  especially  prone  to  con- 
sider our"  forefathers  as  doing  little  or 
nothing ;  but  that  we  of  the  present  have 
done  it  all.  With  no  desire  to  minimize 
the  achievements  of  our  own  generation, 
which  are  well  worthy  of  a  great  race,  we 
must  give  a  place  to.  the  wisdom  of  our 
predecessors  who  laid  the  foundation  of 
what  we  are  and  are  doing.  And  it  is 
our  part  to  see  that  we  go  forward  and 
upward  instead  of  on  a  level  or  backward. 
Carlyle   says,  "The  goal  of  yesterday  will 


L3 

be  the  starting  point  of  tomorrow."  And 
in  our  pride  we  ought  not  to  forget  that 
the  architecture  of  the  Greek  of  2,500  years 
ago  stands  unsurpassed  today.  Our  hand- 
somest buildings  are  copies  of  theirs.  In 
oratory,  Demosthenes,  Cicero  and  Caesar 
have  no  peers  living  at  the  moment.  In 
sculpture  we  find  our  museums  filled  with 
works  of  old.  In  poetry  the  list  may  be 
headed  with  Homer.  We  can  use  our  elec- 
tricity, talk  at  long  or  short  distance  and 
enjoy  many  comforts  they  of  old  did  not 
have.  Rut  we  will  not  have  earned  the 
right  to  look  down  upon  our  predecessors 
till  we  have  built  a  more  beautiful  house 
than  the  Parthenon,  written  better  poety 
than  Homer,  spoken  with  more  effect  than 
Demosthenes  and  Cicero,  and  governed 
colonies  better  than  Rome  did.  Rome  ruled 
the  world,  we  have  difficulty  in  handling 
a  few  islands.  Napoleon  at  the  battle  of 
the  Pyramids,  had  a  similar  idea  when  he 
exclaimed  to  his  soldiers,  "En  haute  de  ces 
monuments  quarante  siecles  vous  attend." 
(  From  the  tops  of  those  monuments  forty 
centuries  look   down  upon   you.) 


"Happiness  is  the  ultimate  object  of  all 
uiman  action,  and  hope  and  love  are  the 
insrels  that  lead  us  on." 


"Every  man  should  endeavor  to  deserve 
the  good  opinion  he  has  of  himself." 


"The  door  between  us  and  heaven  can- 
not be  open  while  that  between  us  and  our 
fellow  man  is  shut." 


The  ideal  husband   exists   chiefly   in   the 
minds  of  women  who  never  married.

ROWAN  COUNTY  (N.  C.)  RECORDS. 

EARLY  SETTLERS. 

Contributed  by  Eugene  H.  Bean. 

From  1734  to  1749  Bladen  county,  North 
Carolina,  extended  from  practically  about 
78^2  vv.  longitude,  and  between  the  Virginia 
and  South  Carolina  lines,  indefinitely  to 
the  west.  Throughout  the  central  portion 
of  the  State  were  scattered  settlements  of 
Germans,  Scotch,  Scotch  Irish,  English  and 
a  few  Irish.  With  no  courts  within  a  con- 
venient distance,  to  secure  redress  or  to 
register  their  land  titles,  they  sought  a 
new  county  and  an  accessible  county  ;eat. 
On  1741-j  Anson  was  formed,  and  its 
area  was  about  from  79}  2  to  the  west  in- 
definitely. The  county  seat  was  established 
in  the  southeast  of  the  county  and  near 
the  South  Carolina  line.  This  greatly  dis- 
pleased the  majority  of  the  inhabitants, 
they  being  in  the  central  portion,  and  near 
the  Virginia  line.  They  protested  and 
continued  to  journey  to  Raleigh,  their 
State  Capital,  to  record  their  land  grants. 

In  1753  Rowan  was  established  with 
the  same  eastern  boundary  as  Anson,  the 
thirty-fifth  and  a  half  parallel  of  latitude 
as  the  southern  boundary,  the  Virginia  line 
as  the  northern  and  the  "western  waters" 
as  the  western.  From  1770  to  1836  it  was 
continually  sliced  until  it  was  left  in  area 
as  it  is  today. 

The  majority  of  the  first  settlers  west 
of  the  Yadkin,  or  Sapona  River,  were  Ger- 
mans and  Scotch  Irish  from  Pennsylvania. 
Some  of  these  were  born  there,  many  had 
resided  there  for  years  but  were  reared 
in  their  native  countries,  others  only  so- 
journed long  enough  to  find  out  about  other 
portions  of  the  country.  The  English  set- 
tlers were  principally  from  Jersey,  Dela- 
ware, Maryland  and  Virginia.  There  were 
also  Germans,  Scotch  Irish  and  a  few 
Hugeonots  who  came  into  this  section  from 
South  Carolina.  Many  of  these  were  of 
the  Redemptionist  class  that  landed  at 
Charleston. 

A  History  of  Rowan  County  is  being 
compiled.  The  first  volume  will  be  en- 
tirely of  general  material.  The  second, 
and  perhaps,  a  third  volume  will  be  de- 
voted to  sketches  and  succinct  genealogies 
of  all  settlers  previous  to  1800,  in  what  is 


now  the  present  area  of  the  county.  Ap- 
pended is  a  list  of  early  settlers  and  land 
owners  previous  to  1800.  Of  some  of 
these  practically  every  branch  has  been  ■ 
located,  of  others  very  little  is  known  and 
all  left  relatives  in  this  section.  Those 
that  resided  within  the  county  before  1800, 
left  no  relatives  and  whose  names  disap- 
peared from  the  records  and  had  become 
extinct  have  been  left  oft  of  the  list.  How- 
ever, some  of  these  will  be  noted  in  the 
general  history  section  for  various  ser- 
vices or  exploits. 

The  compiler  of  this  work  is  Eugene  H. 
Bean,  an  attorney,  of  Salisbury.  Xorth  Car- 
olina. He  is  anxious  to  get  into  communi- 
cation with  descendants  of  these  Rowan 
people.  The  first  early  immigration  was 
principally  into  Western  Xorth  Carolina, 
Tennessee.  Kentucky,  Ohio,  Indiana,  and 
Illinois.  Many  also  went  south  and  south- 
west especially  just  after  the  war  of  1812 
and  the  Mexican  war.  Thousands  of  peo- 
ple throughout  these  States  are  of  tjie 
opinion  that  their  ancestors  came  direct 
from  Pennsylvania  or  the  foreign  countries 
when,  in  fact,  they  sojourned  for  some- 
time in  Xorth  Carolina  and  left  relatives 
there. 

The  court  records  at  Salisbury,  Xorth 
Carolina,  are  the  most  valuable  in  Western 
Xorth  Carolina  and  are  of  much  worth  to 
the  people  of  the  States  mentioned  above. 
The  compiler  will  willingly  and  gratui- 
tously answer  any  inquiries  concerning  this 
work  or  of  anything  historical  concerning 
this  section.  If  anyone  should  not  find  his 
ancestral  name  on  this  list  and  they  know 
that  their  ancestors  were  from  Rowan,  they 
should  write  the  author.  Some  have  doubt- 
less been  left  out  that  should  have  ap- 
peared and  of  those  left  off  of  the  list  in- 
tentionally, thinking  that  the  sketches  were 
complete,  much  more  material  may  be  avail- 
able that  is  valuable  and  should  be  recorded. 
Information  concerning  the  antecedents  of 
these  early  settlers  will  be  gratefully  appre- 
ciated.

The  Chronology  of  the  CLEMENS 
Family. — Compiled  by  William  M.  Clem- 
ens, 1914;  $1.50.  Over  300  years  in  time 
includes  nearly  100  different  Clemens 
family  lines.  Immigrants  to  America  from 
Germany,  Holland,  England,  Ireland  and 
Wales,  will  prove  a  valuable  basis  for  com- 
piling more  complete  genealogies  of  the 
various  lines  than  has  been  possible  here- 
tofore. 

Various  spellings  of  the  name  are  given : 
Clemens,  Clemmens,  Clemons,  Clemmons, 
Clemins,  Clemmins,  Clemans,  Clemmans, 
Clemence,  Clemenz,  but  it  is  specially  noted 
that  all  are  without  the  "t."  The  name 
Clement  is  a  distinctly  different  one  and 
has  no  connection  whatever  with  "the 
names  without  the  t." 

The  author  states  that  he  has  much  avail- 
able matter  as  to  names,  places  and  per- 
sons, relative  to  marriages,  births  and 
deaths,  which  he  has  purposely  omitted 
from  this  chronology — considering  such  in- 
complete information  as  more  or  less  un- 
reliable as  it  has  not  yet  been  verified  by 
the  dates  in  full  which  are  necessities  in  a 
chronological  compilation,  but  which,  witli 
new  data,  are  to  be  inserted  from  time  to 
time  in  enlarged  editions  which  he  hopes  to 
prepare,  and  for  which  purpose  he  asks  the 
co-operation  and  correspondence  of  those 
interested. 


The  HUDGINS  Family  of  Virginia. — 
Compiled  by  Estelle  V.  Callender  (Mrs. 
W.  E.  Callender)  Copyright  1013.  Being 
the  descendants  (and  kin)  of  John  Hud- 
gin  who  came  from  Gloucestershire,  Eng- 
land, to  Virginia,  where  his  son  Robert 
was  b.  in  1772  (d.  Mch.  27,  1821,  buried  in 
Matthews  County,  Va.)  The  children  of 
this  Robert  and  Sarah  (Buckner)  Hudgin 
who  added  the  "s"  to  the  name  giving  it  its 
modern  form  of  Hudgins. 

John  Buckner,  b.  163 1,  in  England,  d.  in 
Virginia  in  1695;  m.  July  10,  1661  in  Lon- 
don, Debora  Ferrers ;  settled  in  Gloucester 
County,  Va.,  1667.  His  father,  Thomas 
Buckner,  b.  1590  was  the  son  of  Hugh 
Buckner,  b.  1560,  in  England. 

Samuel  Timson,  another  ancestor,  came 


from  England  to  York  County,  Va.,  in 
1677,  d.  1694;  his  wife,  Alary  Barber 
(dau.  of  Col.  William  Barber,  of  York 
Co.,  Va.,  b.   1602),  d.    1702. 

Capt.  William  Davenport,  b.  Sept.  20, 
1746;  d.  April  3,  1809;  m.  Norfolk,  Va., 
March    1,    1770,    Mary    Huntlev     (  1752- 

1849). 

Hon.  Samuel  Matthews,  Captain-General 
and  Governor  of  Virginia,  1622- 1660,  an- 
cestor of  Susan  (Buckner)  Hudgin,  was  a 
most  interesting  personality,  his  ancestry 
is  given  back  to  Lord  David,  of  Mathew, 
first  lord  of  Cardiganshire,  Wales,  gt.  gt. 
grandson  of  Louis  VI,  of  France,  9th  in  de- 
scent from  Goilherd,  of  Wales. 

Another  line  of  ancestry  of  Mrs.  Callen- 
der is  through  the  Stone,  How,  and  Liver- 
more  families  of  New  England :  Capt.  Ed- 
ward E.  Stone,  U.  S.  N.,  b.  Jan.  27,  1826; 
d.  June  18,  1892;  in.  Fannie  Leonide  d. 
Montalant.  The  family  correspondence  of 
the  de  Montalant  family  (one  of  the  oldest 
of  France),  is  full  of  historical  romance 
and  includes  letters  from  Yaladee.  the  first 
or  legitimate  wife  of  a  Sultan  of  Turkey 
and  from  Josephine,  wife  of  Xapoleon 
Bonaparte,  cousins,  among  many  others. 

A  brief  sketch  of  Rev.  William  E.  Cal- 
lender, one  of  the  members  of  the  X.  G.  S., 
is  also  in  this  attractive  little  publication.

AMERICANS   OF   ROYAL   LINEAGE. 
By  Dr.  J.  G.  B.  Bulloch. 

An  assertion  has  been  made  that  it  is  im- 
possible to  prove  that  families  in  America 
are  descended  from  Royalty.  This  idea  is 
probably  due  to  the  practice  now  in  vogue 
with  the  present  Royal  Families  of  Europe, 
to  allow  intermarriage  only  amongst  those 
of  Imperial  or  Royal  rank.  In  days  gone 
by  it  was  of  frequent  occurrence  that  the 
daughters  of  Kings  (especially  was  it  so  in 
Scotland)  married  either  gentlemen  or 
those  of  baronial  or  higher  degree ;  and  as 
these  royally  descended  persons  through 
cadet  houses  gradually  became  less  and  less 
powerful,  it  often  happened  that  their 
daughters  found  matrimonial  alliances  with 
gentlemen,  merchants,  and  burghers.  In 
this  way  a  large  number  of  people  were 
descended  from  their  former  sovereigns ; 
and  being  related  to  the  ruling  classes  of 
course  took  some  pride  in  being  relations 
of  their  monarchs.  So  far  as  to  whether 
there  is  any  advantage  or  good  in  being  of 
gentle,  noble  and  Royal  descent  we  will  not 
discuss,  but  simply  from  a  historical  stand- 
point will  proceed  to  show  that  there  are 
many  families  in  this  country  of  Royal 
Lineage.  Of  course,  there  are  persons  of 
Royal  Stock  who  cannot  prove  it,  and 
numbers  make  the  assertion  who  have  not 
their  lines  complete ;  but  there  be  some  who 
can  maintain  their  claim  beyond  question. 
Among  these  are  the  Irvines  of  Cults  of 
Ga.,  the  Cuthberts  of  S.  C,  the  Fairfaxes 
of  Ya.,  and  others;  but  as  a  long  disserta- 
tion on  this  subject  is  not  essential,  we  will 
proceed  to  prove  the  claims  of  these  families 
above  mentioned  who  in  legitimate  lines, 
and  with  proof  incontrovertible,  can  sub- 
stantiate and  bring  adequate  historical  doc- 
umentary and  other  evidence  in  support  of 
their  assertions.  At  to  Irvine:  Dr.  John 
Irvine  was  born  on  the  estate  of  Cults  in 
Aberdeenshire  the  15th  of  September,  1742; 
went  to  Ga.  and  married  at  Sunbury,  St. 
John's  Parish,  now  Liberty  Co.,  on  the  5th 
of  September,  1765,  to  Ann  Elizabeth,  da. 
of  Col.  Kenneth  Baillie  of  Ga.,  of  the  fam- 
ily of  Baillie  of  Duncan,  and  had  a  number 
of  children,  amongst  whom  was  Ann  Irvine, 
who  married  April   13,   1786,  Capt.  James 


Bulloch,  eldest  son  of  Hon.  Archibald  Bul- 
loch of  Ga.  As  to  whom  Dr.  John  Irvine 
was  would  say  that,  to  avoid  a  long  and 
tedious  thesis  as  to  his  antecedents,  the  let- 
ter of  Alexander  Irvine  of  Drum  Castle, 
explanatory  as  to  the  entail  of  the  Irvines 
of  Drum  is  in  the  possession  of  the  writer 
and  shows  Dr.  Irvine  to  have  been  of  the 
family  of  Irvines  of  Cults,  that  he  went  to 
Ga.,  and  furthermore  the  Book  on  the  Ir- 
vines of  Drum  by  Col.  J.  Forbes  Leslie 
shows  the  descent  of  Irvine  of  Cults  and 
so  does  Burke's  Landed  Gentry.  The  book 
also  gives  the  name  of  Charles  Irvine  of 
Cults  and  shows  the  marriage  of  him  to 
Euphemia  Douglas,  and  the  records  show 
Charles  Irvine  to  have  been  the  son  of  Robt. 
Irvine  and  Margaret  Coutts.  The  records 
also  show  Dr.  John  Irvine  to  have  been  the 
son  of  Charles  Irvine  and  Euphemia  Doug- 
las, and  the  Dingwall-Foretyee  Records 
show  the  descent  of  Euphemia  Douglas 
from  John  Douglas,  Laird  of  Tilguhillie, 
who  married  Grizel  Forbes,  da.  of  Thomas 
Forbes  of  Watertown,  whose  descent  is 
given  in  Book  of  Forbes  of  Watertown  in 
Library  of  Congress ;  and  by  following  the 
line  of  Forbes,  Ogilvie,  Seton,  Hepburn  of 
Bothwell,  Hays,  and  Douglas,  Earl  of  Mor- 
ton, we  get  an  unbroken  line  to  James  I  o. 
Scotland,  who  married  Lady  Jean  de  Beau- 
fort, the  granddaughter  of  Edward  III  of 
England.  Furthermore,  if  we  take  the  line 
of  Cults  back  to  Gilbert  Irvine  of  Colairlie, 
son  of  Alex  Irvine  of  Drum,  we  find  that 
Alex  Irvine  of  Drum  married  Elizabeth  Og- 
ilvie, grand  da.  of  Alex'r  Ogilvie  and  Lady- 
Agnes  Gordon,  da.  of  2nd  Earl  of  Huntly ; 
and,  furthermore,  if  we  go  back  to  Alex'r 
Irvine,  the  grandfather,  we  find  that  he 
married  Lady  Elizabeth  Forbes,  da.  of 
Lord  Forbes,  by  Elizabeth  Forbes,  daughter 
of  the  1st  Lord  Forbes,  by  Elizabeth  Doug- 
las, da.  of  George  Douglas,  1st  Earl  of  An- 
gus, who  married  the  Princess  Mary,  da. 
of  King  Robert  III  of  Scotland. 

The  Baillies  of  Ga.  also  had  lines  of 
Roval  Lineage  as  well  as  the  Irvines  of 
Cults  and  Drum,  and  Douglas  of  Tilgn- 
hillie.  Many  proofs  can  be  adduced  to 
show  the  Royal  Blood  of  the  Irvines  of  Ga. 

YYe  will  now  take  up  the  Cuthberts  of 
Castle   Hill,   who    went   to   Ga.   and    S.    C. 


Wills  and  other  records  of  Charleston,  S.  C, 
Atlanta,  and  Savannah,  Ga.,  as  well  as  other 
proofs  show  the  Cuthberts  to  descend  from 
George  Cuthbert,  Baron  of  Castle  Hill,  who 
married  Magdalen  Fraser,  da.  of  Sir  James 
Fraser  of  Brae  (see  McKenzie  on  Fraser 
Family  in  Library  of  Congress) .  Sir  James 
Fraser  of  Brae  was  son  of  Simon,  8th  Lord 
Fraser  and  7th  of  Lovat,  who  married, 
1596,  Jean,  da.  of  James  Stuart  Lord 
Doune.  By  following  up  the  Fraser  line 
we  find  the  Cuthberts  descended  from  King 
James  IV  of  Scotland.  Dr.  James  Cuth- 
bert, who  went  to  S.  C.  about  1739,  was 
the  son  of  John  Cuthbert  of  Castle  Hill 
(Baron),  who  married  Jean  Hay,  da.  of  Rt. 
Rev.  Wm.  Hay,  Bishop  of  Moray,  of  an- 
cient lineage  from  Hay  of  Erroll,  and  of 
Royal  Lineage.  John  Cuthbert  was  the -son 
of  the  before-mentioned  George  Cuthbert, 
Baron  of  Castle  Hill,  and  Magdalen  Fraser, 
da.  of  Sir  James  Fraser  (Fraser  of  Brae). 
We  thus  see  that  the  Cuthberts  of  S.  C. 
have  indisputable  proof  of  Royal  descent. 
As  to  the  Fairfax  Family  of  \a.,  we 
simply  refer  to  MacKenzie's  Colonial  Fam- 
ilies of  America  and  to  Scott's  Peerage  by 
Sir  Balfour  Paul  (Library  of  Congress), 
and  by  tracing  their  pedigree  shall  see  that 
they  also  are  descendants  of  Kings. 

The  Mcintosh  Family  of  Ga.  and  Rose  of 
Bellerat  of  Va.  are  also  of  Royal  Ancestry. 
In  fact,  others  can  be  mentioned,  but  space 
will  not  permit  of  writing  up  all  the  fam- 
ilies of  those  who  require  Royal  descent  to 
enter  The  Order  of  the  Crown,  The  Im- 
perial Order  of  the  Yellow  Rose,  and  The 
Society  of  Americans  of  Royal  Descent. 
From  the  families  of  Irvine.  Mcintosh, 
Baillie,  Douglas,  Cuthbert,  and  Fairfax  are 
to  be  found  many  Americans  of  Royal  Lin- 
eage which  to  enumerate  would  take  too 
much  time  and  space.

NOTES  ON  THE  AMERICAN  REl'O- 
LUTION. 

Contributed  by  Mrs.  E.  S.  Fisher. 
1777  A.  D. 

Ninth  mo.,  18th.  Went  to  Haddonfield 
Quarterlv  Meeting.  At  this  time  there  was 
very  great  commotions,  by  reasons  of  the 
smugglings  of  the  powers  of  the  earth. 
The  English  being  now  arrived  at  Philadel- 
phia many  that  opposed  them  were  put  to 
flight,  and  great  ado  there  was,  in  moving 
families,  and  goods  from  the  town ;  there 
was  a  great  debate,  in  this  meeting  amongst 
Friends,  whether  it  would  be  best  to  at- 
tend the  yearly  meeting.  Some  of  the  fore- 
most rank  spoke  very  discouragingly,  but 
at  length  a  small  number  of  Friends,  were 
appointed  to  attend,  and  they  went  down 
to  the  ferry,  but  could  not  go  over,  the 
boats  being  all  sent  away,  to  prevent  any- 
passing.  There  was  dreadful  work  at  this 
time,  pressing  wagons  and  horses,  and  many 
Friends  had  their  wagons  and  horses  taken 
from  them  to  carry  off  stores.  Such  doings 
as  this  made  many  afraid  to  travel  the 
great  roads,  and  so  private  roads  were 
sought  for.  and  traveled  by  night,  for  fear 
of  being  pressed. 

Tenth  month,  4th  day.  There  was  a 
dreadful  noise  of  guns,  and  roaring  of  can- 
non, over  in  Pennsylvania.  The  most  vio- 
lent firing  of  guns  I  believe,  that  was  ever 
yet  heard  in  our  parts. 

Tenth  month,  nth  day.  This  day,  there 
was  a  most  dreadful  roaring  of  cannon  on 
the  river. 

Twelfth  day.  We  went  to  our  meeting 
and  the  cannons  fired  so  hard  they  seemed 
to  jar  the  meeting  house. 

Sixteenth  day.  After  meeting,  a  soldier, 
or  officer  came  amongst  the  people  to  press 
wagons,  several  pleaded  with  him,  and  got 
off  safe  with  their  wagons,  that  time.  But 
at  Haddonfield,  Friends'  wagons  and  horses 
were  pressed  almost  every  meeting  day 
about  this  time.  Yet  did  indifference  and 
lukewarmness  much  prevail. 

Twenty-third  day.  Just  as  we  were  ready 
to  set  off  to  meeting,  there  came  a  man,  and 
asked  if  we  would  take  in,  or  entertain,  a 
family  that  was  afraid  of  being  taken  by 
the  Hessian  Army,  which  was  at  Haddon- 
field, and  it  was  said  were  going  to  Moores- 
town.  I  thought  best  to  leave  them  at  their 
liberty.  The  man  went  back  and  imme- 
diately the  family  came;  that  is,  a  man,  his 
wife,  and  two  children.  The  woman  and 
one  of  the  children  were  crying;  they  would 
persuade  us  not  to  go  to  meeting,  but  I  felt 


most  easy  to  go.  When  we  came  to  Moores- 
town  there  was  a  great  uproar,  and  the 
people  expected  the  Hessians  every  hour. 
When  the  meeting  had  been  gathered  a 
little  while  there  was  a  great  uproar  and 
noise  in  the  street,  and  an  outcry  that  they 
were  coming.  A  man  came  to  the  door  and 
called  a  Friend  out,  and  said  they  would 
be  here  in  five  minutes'  time,  whereupon 
some  Friends  went  out,  and  went  home, 
but  the  most  part  were  favored  to  sit  still. 
There  were  a  constant  roaring  of  cannon 
all  this  while,  which  jarred  the  house,  but 
at  last  came  one  that  even  shook  the  walls, 
and  very  much  surprised  the  people.  Wo- 
men turned  pale  and  began  to  cry,  but  sat 
still  and  seemed  to  get  over  the  shock. 
These  cannons  seemed  so  hard  I  thought 
it  was  likely  they  were  at  the  lower  end 
of  the  town,  which  was  the  more  dreadful. 
When  we  came  out  of  meeting  all  seemed 
still  and  quiet,  ami  we  found  it  was  a  false 
alarm.  There  were  no  Hessians  nearer 
than  Haddonfield.  It  was  said  that  great 
shock  was  a  ship  blown  up. 

Eleventh  month.  2nd  day.  Our  meeting 
was  quite  silent,  and  undisturbed,  though 
a  great  number  of  soldiers  had  lodged 
there  the  night  before.  The  Jersies  ( West 
and  East  Jersey)  being  now  filled  with  sol- 
diers, almost  every  few  days  they  were  go- 
ing to  a  fort  down  the  river,  opposite  Wood- 
bury. These  Hessians  that  were  at  Had- 
donfield, had  a  battle  with  the  Americans, 
and  were  beaten,  and  returned  to  Phila- 
delphia.

so  good  a  lot  of  Virginians  as  Zachariah

each  individual  his  own  political  opinion.

SANTA  CLAUS. 
Santa  Claus,  Kris  Kringle.  What  sweet 
memories  these  names  bring  to  the  adult, 
and  how  a  child's  face  lights  up  at  their 
mention.  Who  is  Santa  Claus?  The  Greek- 
deified  his  ancestors.  The  Egyptian  deified 
and  personified  the  powers  of  Nature.  The 
Christian  personifies  his  God.  He  comes 
down  on  Earth  and  lives  as  a  man  among 
men.  But  it  remains  for  the  Teuton  to 
personify  and  half  deify  the  Spirit  of 
Parental  Love.  Such  is  Santa  Claus.  And 
in  this  spirit  this  beautiful  legend  is  the 
truest  of  all  we  have.  When  the  little  ones 
ask  you  if  it  is  really  true  there  is  a  Santa, 
tell  them  yes.  Does  he  not  come  every 
year?  Does  he  ever  forget  them?  Does 
the  stocking,  hung  up  in  faith,  ever  go  un- 
visited?  And  as  long  as  fathers  and 
mothers  love  their  offspring  -so  long  will 
Santa  be  the  patron  saint  of  that  divine 
emotion.  Some  one  has  written  "The 
Poems  of  Ossian  may  be  false  as  to  names 
and  places ;  but  they  are  true  as  to  the 
spirit  of  their  age  and  are  the  echoes  of  its 
chivalry."  And  so  the  legend  of  Santa 
Claus  is  true  to  the  spirit  of  parental  love, 
and  the  echo  of  one  of  the  sweetest  senti- 
ments known  to  mankind. 

Looking  over  the  matter  it  is -surprising 
to  find  so  little  written  about  this  legend, 
from  a  historical  standpoint.  Even  so  ex- 
haustive an  authority  as  Encyclopedia  Brit- 
tanica  has  nothing.  It  started  in  Asia 
Minor  in  the  eleventh  century,  was  founded 
by  the  good  St.  Nicholas  himself;  but  not 
until  it  reached  Teutonic  Europe  did  it 
blossom  and  flower  to  the  full,  and  every 
child  brought  up  under  the  influence  of  that 
benign  Kris  Kringle  has  cause  to  be  thank- 
ful unto  prayer  for  the  beautiful  lesson  it 
has  brought  him  in  faith,  imagination,  and 
parental  love. 

Let  us  think  of  this  lesson  in  faith.  As 
long  as  the  child's  faith  in  Santa  Claus  is 
absolute,  St.  Nicholas  never  fails  to  make 
the  cherished  and  looked-for  annual  visit. 
But  as  the  little  one  gets  older,  more 
worldly-wise,  and  less  faithful,  Santa's  en- 
ergy weakens  in  that  direction  until,  faith 
being  gone,  his  visits  cease  altogether.  It 
almost  seems  as  if  Santa  is  the  creation  of 
childish  trust  and  faith. 

"If  you  have  faith  you  can  move  moun- 
tains."— Matthew   17:20. 


Forgive  others   often,   yourself   never.- 
Syrus. 


Jeremiah  has  a  deal  more  to  say  in  the 
Bible  than  Jesus.  Jeremiah  was  the  fore- 
runner of  downfall,  Jesus  the  redeemer  of 
the  world. 


OUR  SOCIETY. 

Our   Society  has  started  out   well,   with 
the  usual  steady  growing  for  the  year  [9 14- 
15.    The  October  meeting  was  held  at  Mrs 
L.  C.  B.  Hill's.     Mrs.  Hill  was  at  her  best 
and  prettiest,  and  made  every  one  have  a 
good  time.     The  genealogical  pot  began  to 
boil   for  the  season  and   Mr.   Daniel  Smith 
Gordon  made  an  address  on  Charles  I  of 
England.     The   November  meeting  was  at 
Mrs.   Overton   VV.    Ennis's.     The   business 
part  of  the  meeting  was  largely  taken  up  by 
the   nomination  of  officers    for    1915.      For 
entertainment,  Mr.  Gordon  read  a  paper  on 
"The  Strong  Influence  of  Heredity  on  Man- 
kind as   Well  as  Animals."     These  thing- 
were  topped  off  by  ice  cream,  etc.,  served 
with   real   Virginia  hospitality  by  Mr.  and 
Airs.  Ennis  and  daughter.     The  December 
meeting  took  place  at  Mrs.  Ashby  T.  Wood- 
ward's, with  Mrs.  Woodward  and  Mr.  Gor- 
don as  joint  hosts.     Officers   were  elected 
for     1915     (see    back    cover    of    January 
Quarterly).    Mrs.  O.  W.  Ennis  read  a  most 
interesting    paper    on    Heraldry,    showing 
deep    knowledge     of    the     subject.       Mr-. 
Charles  H.   Bowker   followed  with  one  on 
"The  Women  of  Early  Colonial  "America," 
telling  of  many  heroic  Xew  England  women 
and   winding   up   with   an    account   of   the

A  recent  letter  from  one  of  our  Xew 
England  members  calls  attention  to  the  fact, 
which  the  Editor  has  known  and  noticed 
several  times  in  the  Quarterly,  that  our 
magazine  smacks  too  much  of  the  South. 
Now,  for  all  of  our  matter  we  are  de- 
pendent on  our  members,  and  we  urge  and 
most  earnestly  beg  some  of  our  Puritan 
constituents  to  send  us  some  of  the  genea- 
logical lore  that  abounds  in  great  profusion 
in  that  quarter.  The  East  has  filled  so 
large  a  place  in  the  literary,  political,  and 
commercial  development  of  our  beloved 
country  that  it  is  absolutely  impossible  for 
us  to  forget  or  ignore  that  section  for  a 
moment.  Will  not  some  of  our  Eastern 
friends  send  us  some  of  the  interesting 
racial  things  which  we  will  take  delight  in 
putting  before  the  Society?

The  asterisks  show  names  left  out  for 
want  of  space.  But  above  table  gives  de- 
scent of  the  great  Caesar  from  Venus,  the 
Greek  Goddess  of  Beauty,  and  also  tells  his 
relationship  to  Antony,  who  aroused  the 
Roman  people  by  his  orations  at  the  time 
of  the  Emperor's  death.  CAESAR  is  by 
many  people  considered  as  the  greatest  man 
that  has  lived  since  the  beginning  of  re- 
corded history.  And,  as  above,  he  had  a 
most  wonderful  ancestry — direct  from  Jupi- 
ter himself. 


He   who   weighs    his   burdens    can    bear

186.  Alexander  Gordon  died  before

exact  vear  of  his  demise?  X.  X. 


187.  Can  some  genealogist  tell  me  the 
time  of  birth  and  demise  of  Basil  Prather, 
of  Montgomery  Co.,  Mi,  and  Franklin  Co., 
Pa.  ?  Records  show  he  originally  settled 
in  X.  J.  in  the  early  /700's.  X.  X. 


188.  Norman  Burroughs  of  St.  Marys 
Co.,  Md.,  a  soldier  in  Rev.  War.  Can  any 
Md.  genealogist  tell  me  if  he  was  a  de- 
scendant of  the  immigrant  Christopher 
Burroughs,  and,  if  so,  give  his  line  from 
Christopher  B.  ?  Christopher  Burroughs 
came  originally  to  Va.  and  then  went  to 
Md.  D.  S.  G. 


mo.  The  Ltwis  Family,  of  Liberty  Co. 
and  Savannah,  Ga.  We  find  from  record 
evidence  in  wills  in  State  Capitol,  Atlanta, 
Ga.,  and  Colonial  Records  of  the  State  by 
Gov.  Candler,  that  the  ancestor  was  Sam- 
uel Lewis,  who  came  to  Ga.  1754  to  1750. 
It  is  said  the  family  went  from  Va.  to 
S.  C.  and  then  to  Ga.,  and  were  related  to 
Genl.  Washington ;  but  there  is  no  proof 
of  this.  Will  not  some  one  give  some 
light  on  this  point?  From  similarity  of 
names  found  in  N.  C.  Records  we  con- 
sider that  the  above  surmise  may  be  cor- 
rect. They  undoubtedly  settled  in  Bertie 
and  New  Flanover  Counties,  for  in  the  lat- 
ter county  in  1754  we  find  as  Road  Com- 
missioner Satnl.  Lewis,  and  in  a  land 
transaction  Jacob  and  Isaac  Lewis,  171 7. 
In  Ga.  we  find  the  family  occupied  posi- 
tions in  military  and  official  life.  The  Ga. 
ancestor,  Saml.  Lewis,  had  a  grant  of  450 
acres   in    1759   and   was   tax   collector   and 


assessor  February  27,  1759.     His  wife  and 
children  were  :  Wife,  Alary  ;  children  : 

I.  Abraham  Lewis. 

II.  Saml.  Lewis  (killed  by  Indians  in 
Tenn.). 

III.  Judah  Lewis  (killed  in  a  skirmish 
at  Middleton's  Mill,  between  Riceboro  and 
Midway  Church,  at  the  same  time  that 
Genl.  James  Screven  met  his  death). 

IV.  Capt.  Elijah  Lewis  d.  1S09.  City- 
Surveyor  of  Liberty  Co.;  m.  1st,  Oct.  18, 
1779;  2nd.  m.  Sarah  Hines.

VII.  Jacob  Lewis. 

VIII.  Benj.  Lewis. 

IX.  John  Lewis.  Tutor  of  Sunbury 
Academy. 

X:  Demmis  Lewis  m.  Capt.  John  Weber. 

In  X.  C.  Records  we  find  Lieut.  Demis, 
so  the  rarity  of  the  name  would  indicate 
relation  to  the  family  of  Demmis.  In  X.  C. 
the  Lewis's  were  many  times  found  in 
military  service ;  in  Ga.  were  landowners  ;  in 
official  life  and  the  church  in  Savannah,  Ga.

History  of  the  Society  of  Descendants  of 
Robert  Bartlet  of  Plymouth.  Massachusetts. 
Compiled  and  edited  by  Marian  Longfellow, 
Historian  of  the  Society.  (1914.)  This 
society  was  incorporated  Dec.  11.  1909;  or- 
ganized Aug.  18,  190S.  by  fifty  persons  who 
met  in  response  to  a  circular  letter  of  invi- 
tation to  descendants  of  Robert  Bartlet  of 
Plymouth  who  came  over  in  the  ship  Ann 
in  1623.  In  1628  he  married  Mary,  dau. 
of  Richard  Warren,  a  Mayflower  Pilgrim. 

This  history  deals  not  only  with  the  pro- 
ceedings of  the  Society,  but  gives  the  ante- 
cedents of  Robert  and  Mary  (Warren) 
Bartlet  and  includes  a  great  deal  of  gene- 
alogical   data.      The    roster   of    living    de-

The  Autobiography  of  Rev.  H.  P.  Lezvis, 
a  superannuated  member  of  the  Mississippi 
Conference,  having  been  fifty-six  years  in 
the  itinerant  ministry  of  the  M.  E.  Church 
South,  was  written  especially  for  his  chil- 
dren and  friends  who  had  been  under  his 
ministry  in  the  States  of  Mississippi  and 
Louisiana.  Born  in  Marion  County,  Mis- 
sissippi, April  1,  1835;  grandson  of  Ben- 
jamin Lewis  (b.  1760-62  in  Ya.),  a  soldier 
of  the  Rev.,  who  after  the  war  settled  in 
Robeson  Co.,  X.  C,  and  married  Miss 
Celia  Martin  ;  son  of  Quinnea  and  Martha 
(Spier)  Lewis,  who  removed  to  Miss,  about 
1S20;  father  of  six  sons,  five  of  whom  are 
Methodist  preachers,  as  is  also  one  son-in- 
law ;  to  his  first  wife  (Miss  Rebecca  Ann 
Tillery),  the  mother  of  his  children,  he  says 
that  he  ''is  indebted  more  than  to  any  other 
person,  for  the  training  of  his  children, 
and  his  success  in  the  ministry";  he  mar- 


ried, second,  Mrs.  Louisiana  (Gibson) 
Langston,  widow  of  Rev.  J.  M.  Langston,

This  little  book  is  fuil  of  personal  experi- 
ences of  much  interest. 

History  of  the  Big  Spring  Presbyterian 
Church,  by  Gilbert  Ernest  Swope.  This 
comprehensive  work,  compiled  from  the 
church,  graveyard,  and  other  records  of 
vital  statistics,  is  practically  a  genealogy 
of  many  of  its  families. 

Among  the  many  disclosed  through  Mr. 
Swope's  efforts  were  papers  left  by  Rev. 
Samuel  Wilson,  pastor  from  1787-1799, 
which  were  stored  away  in  an  old  trunk 
in  the  garret  of  one  of  his  descendants  and 
long  forgotten ;  papers  of  Rev.  Joshua  Wil- 
liams, pastor  from  18Q2-1829,  were  discov- 
ered in  the  far  West  It  was  found  that 
the  sessional  records  in  possession  of  the 
congregation  began  with  1830,  it  being 
the  custom  of  many  ministers  prior  to  that 
period  to  keep  a  roll  of  members,  of  ad- 
missions to  the  church,  of  baptisms  and 
marriages,  and  make  a  record  only  of  cases 
of  discipline  and  to  submit  the  same  to  the 
presbytery  for  examination  anil  approval, 
then  to  consider  it  of  no  further  value  nor 
worthy  of  preservation.  So  it  is  a  great 
matter  that  the  author  for  this  book  re- 
covered the  names  of  all  the  families, 
many  of  them  reaching  back  to  the  origin 
of  this  church  (1738),  the  division  of  the 
congregation  into  districts,  the  names  of  the 
parents,  the  children,  and  members  of  the 
church  in  each  district  and  the  names  of 
the  elders  supervising  each  of  these  dis- 
tricts, several  lists  of  the  theological  ques- 
tions given  out  annually  by  Mr.  Wilson  for 
the  careful  study  of  the  people  and  for  the 
examination  of  the  same  by  the  pastor  or 
the  elders. 

The  settlement  of  the  Cumberland  valley 
in  Pennsylvania  is  traceable  through  the  his- 
tory of  its  churches.  The  origin  of  these 
early  congregations,  their  lives,  characters, 
and  distinctive  characteristics,  the  things 
which  estranged  them  from  their  ancient 
homes  turned  their  attention  to  America 
where  they  'might  secure  to  their  families 
civil  and  religious  liberty. 

About  1736  the  Scotch  Irish  crossed  over 
at  Flarrisburg  and  settled  in  the  vicinity  of 
Big  Spring,  on  the  Conodoguinit.  Big 
Spring  Church  was  organized  within  a 
couple  of  years.  From  here  they  spread 
down  the  valley  into  Virginia,  the  Carolinas, 
and  Tennessee. 

When  in  1898  Dr.  Swope's  health  failed. 


almost  his  last  thoughts  were  of  this  work ; 
he  begged  his  wife  not  to  give  up  her  writ- 
ing, for  together  they  had  labored,  but  to 
use  the  material  already  collected,  much  that 
belonged  to  the  sister  church.  So,  with  a 
feeling  that  in  some  degree  his  was  the  in- 
spiration with  her  still  guiding  her  pen, 
keeping  her  in  good  courage  and  as  a 
memorial  to  him  she  continued  the  work. 

The  History  of  the  Middle  Spring  Pres- 
byterian Church  (1738-1900)  was  published 
in  1900  by  Mrs.  Belle  McKinney  Hays 
Swope.  Middle  Spring  and  Big  Spring 
churches  were  known  by  the  general  name 
of  Hopewell.  To  distinguish  between  them 
Middle  Spring  was  Upper  Hopewell  and 
Big  Spring  was  Lower  Hopewell. 

The  History  of  the  Szeope  Family,  by 
Mr.  Swope,  together  with  the  above  two 
publications,  showr  the  part  that  the  congre- 
gations of  these  two  churches  bore  in  the 
Revolutionary  War.  A  list  of  1,082  per- 
sons connected  with  Big  Spring  Church  in 
1789  is  given,  with  their  ages. 


The  McKiiuiey-Brady-Ouigley  Families, 
by  Mrs.  Bell  McKinney  Hays  Swope 
(1905)  is  an  unusual  collection  in  its 
amount  of  genealogical  data  and  descend- 
ants of  early  settlers  of  the  same  locality ; 
all  were  members  of  these  churches. 

Joseph  McKenzie  died  in  1785.  leaving 
children  and  grandchildren  who  were  born 
in  Hopewell  Township,  Cumberland  Co., 
Pa. 

The  seven  sons  and  two  daughters  of 
Hugh  and  Hannah  Brady,  with  their  par- 
ents, settled  there  about  1750,  and  were  the 
progenitors  of  Capt.  John  Brady.  Capt. 
Samuel  Brady,  and  other  notable  scouts, 
Indian  fighters,  and  Revolutionary  soldiers. 

James  and  Jeannette  Quigley  settled  there 
prior  to  1735. 

In  this  valuable  work  Mrs.  Swope  be- 
gins across  the  water,  using  the  MacKenzie 
plaid  as  a  frontispiece  and  illustrating  with 
coats-of-arms  of  all  three  families,  as  well 
as  churches,  etc.,  on  this  side.  Truly  four 
books  of  much  merit,  of  which  only  a  few 
copies  are  yet  to  be  had  of  Mrs.  Swope, 
who  still  resides  at  Newville,  Pa. 


Northup  and  Tucker  Families  of  Rhode 
Island :  Some  records  of,  with  Notes  on  in- 
termarrying families.  Minneapolis,  1914. 
Compiled  by  Mrs.  Edward  C.  Chatfield. 

Oct.  2,  1655,  25  acres  of  land  were 
granted  to  Stephen  Northup  by  the  town 
meeting  of   Providence,   in   the   Colonv  of 


Rhode  Island.  Name  also  appears  as  Nor- 
thop  and  Northorpe.  The  twelfth  genera- 
tion of  his  descendants  in  one  branch  is  here 
recorded,  giving  all  the  children  of  each 
generation. 

Benjamin  Congdon,  a  large  land  owner  in 
both  North  and  South  Kingston,  lived  at 
Newport  and  at  Portsmouth,  R.  I.  He  was 
b.  about  1650;  d.  June  19,  1718;  wife  Eliza- 
beth, dau.  of  John  and  Dorothy  Albro.  In 
the  fourth  generation  this  line  is  merged 
in  the  Northup  line. 

Morris  Tucker,  of  Salisbury,  Mass.,  m. 
Elizabeth  Stevens,  Oct.  14,  1661  ;  m.,  sec- 
ond, in  1663,  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  John  and 
Phebe    (Buswell)     Gill;    m.,    third,    Grace 

,    who    survived    him.      In    the    eighth 

generation  this  line  united  with  the  Northup 
line. 

Among  the  Tucker  ancestral  lines  given 
are  Potter  notes,  Rodes  notes,  and  Fenner- 
Arnold  data. 

Altogether  a  valuable  collection  of  gene- 
alogical information,  in  which  the  author 
has  consistently  followed  her  plan  of  nam- 
ing all  children  and  giving  full  facts  in  each 
generation  of  the  one  line  being  followed. 

Genealogy  of  the  Parke  Families  of  Mas- 
sachusetts, by  Frank  Sylvester  Parks,  is 
published  primarily  for  the  information  of 
the  living  descendants  of  the  family,  says 
its  author,  and  secondarily  to  place  in  per- 
manent record  form  many  facts  which 
might  otherwise  be  irrevocably  lost  to  pos- 
teritv.  The  book  splendidly  accomplishes 
both  purposes. 

The  old  English  form  of  the  name  used 
as  the  title  embraces  the  various  other  spell- 
ings that  occur  in  the  families  included, 
such  as  Park,  Parkes,  Parks,  Peirks,  etc. 
The  intent  was  to  include  some  record  of 
everv  person  of  the  name  born  in  Massa- 
chusetts whose  ancestor  came  to  America 
prior  to  1800.  A  number  in  New  Hamp- 
shire and  Vermont  have  also  been  included. 
The  complete  Parke  ancestry  has  been  given 
as  far  as  possible  excepting  in  the  case  of 
the  descendants  of  Robert  Parke,  which  are 
to  be  found  in  "The  Parke  Families  of  Con- 
necticut." The  author  has  set  right  some 
errors  that  have  crept  into  printed  works  re- 
garding the  earlier  generations  of  the  Rich- 
ard Parke  family  and  accepted  because  they 
were  published.  Accuracy  has  been  the 
watchword,  and  nothing  has  been  left  un- 
done to  verify  and   substantiate  this   data. 

Among  family  genealogies  in  this  book- 
are  descendants  of  Richard  Parke,  b.  in 
England,   arrived    in    Boston   Oct.   3,   1635, 


[6 


and  his  descendants  down  to  and  including 
the  eleventh  generation,  births,  marriages, 
and  deaths  so  clearly  classified  that  the 
merest  novice  will  understand  and  find  in- 
stantly the  information  desired. 

Alexander  Park,  b.  Scotland  about  1668 ; 
d.  Windham,  N.  H. ;  Jan.  26,  1762;  and 
his  wife,  .Margaret  VVaugh  (1691-1752), 
landed  in  Boston  about  1728-29. 

William  Park,  bap.  Oct.  7,  1705,  in  Glas- 
gow, Scotland,  landed  in  Boston  in  1756; 
his  wife  (Anna  Law)  remained  in  Scotland 
until  1765,  when  she  brought  with  her  their 
two  sons,  James  and  Thomas  Park,  to  Gro- 
ton,  Mass.,  where  he  had  established  him- 
self. 

.  Robert   Parke,  from  England  in  1630  to 
Mass.,  thence  to  Connecticut.

GEXESIS  OF  THE  SOCIETY  OF 

COLONIAL   CAVALIERS 

By   its  Founder,  C.  W.   de  Lyon  Xicholls. 

Palatini-  General 

Incited  tu  action  by  the  revival  of  the 
memories  of  the  Colonial  Cavaliers  by  the 
300th  Anniversary  of  the  founding  of 
Jamestown  with  its  exposition,  I  recorded 
a  vow,  on  Jamestown  Day,  May  13,  1907, 
that  I  would  found  a  National  Society  of 
men  ami  women  who  were  descendants  of 
the  Colonial  Cavaliers.  This  formal  in- 
augural oath  I  took  in  the  famous  treaty- 
room  of  one  of  the  oldest  manorial  estab- 
lishments of  Colonial  Cavalier  antecedents 
now  standing  in  America, — Bentley  Manor 
House,  in  more  common  parlance,  the  old 
Billops  House,  on  Staten  Island,  Greater 
Xew  York.  To  plunge  in  medias  res  any 
cursory  student  of  history  is  aware  that 
two  great ,  forces  have  been  operative  in 
forming  the  Anglo-Saxon  character  in 
America  as  well  as  in  the  mother  country — 
the  Puritan,  loosely  defined  as  the  reformer, 
ami  the  Cavalier  as  the  conservative.  A 
Cavalier,  it  is  almost  trite  to  premise,  was 
one  who  espoused  the  cause  and  followed  the 
fortunes  of  Charles  I  against  Cromwell, 
tlie  term  Cavalier  coming  into  vogue  in  the 
struggle  between  Charles  I  and  his  parlia- 
ment. 

But  the  type  stood  forth  in  clear  cut  de- 
lineation in  the  reign  of  James.  But  what- 
ever the  issues  between  the  Cavaliers  and 
Roundheads  in  the  mother  country,  if  the 
descendants  of  the  Cavaliers  had  not  per- 
formed a  vastly  important  part  in  founding 
our  Xational  Commonwealth  here  in  Amer- 
ica, the  raison  d'etre  for  our  Society  would 
not  exist.  A  mere  glance  at  some  of  the 
great  Colonial  Cavaliers'  names  in  our  na- 
tional history  more  than  justifies  this  So- 
ciety's attempt  to  memorialize  them. 

Such  names  as  George  and  Lawrence 
Washington,  Lord  Baltimore  and  the  other 
Calverts,  the  Carrolls  of  Carrollton,  the 
Lees.     Thomas    Jefferson,  the    Randolphs, 


Carters,  Gov.  Yates,  Sir  Dudley  Wiatt,  Sir 
Thomas  Lunsford,  Sir  Guy  Skipwith,  Sir 
Henry  Chickeley,  the  Marshalls,  the  Har- 
risons, Alexander  Culpepper,  the  Keys, 
Pinkneys,  Dents,  the  Stuarts,  of  Virginia 
and  Maryland,  who  married  into  the  dis- 
tinguished class,  the  Ridgelys  of  "Hamp- 
ton." Win.  Penn  was  of  Cavalier  ante- 
cedents. Sir  Richard  Nicholls,  who  named 
Xew  York  and  was  the  founder  of  Anglo- 
Saxon  supremacy  in  Xew  York,  was  a  pro- 
nounced Cavalier.  Colonial  Xewport,  R. 
[.,  was  prolific  in  Cavaliers,  who  kept  up  a 
great  deal  of  state  and  equipage,  such  as 
Sir  Godfrey  Marlevbone,  the  Eastons,  Cod- 
dingtons,  Gardiners,  Dyers,  Brentons, 
Cranstons,  and  Coggeshalls.  In  the  old 
town  of  Stratford,  Conn.,  whole  groups  of 
Colonial  Cavalier  families  lived  on  planta- 
tions for  generations,  like  their  Virginia 
coevals  of  the  same  political  and  social 
affiliations.  However,  it  is  a  mere  truism 
to  subjoin  that  Virginia  takes  precedence 
before  all  other  States  of  the  Union  as  the 
real  trysting  place  of  Colonial  Cavalier 
memories,  although  as  a  Mr.  Byrd  of  West- 
over,  an  accomplished  lawyer  of  the  family, 
once  told  me,  the  number  of  the  original 
and  authentic  Colonial  Cavalier  families  of 
Virginia  has  been  grossly  exaggerated.  To 
quote  from  the  archives  of  William  and 
Marv  College,  the  names  of  the  following 
Colonial  Cavalier  founders  and  patriots 
may  be  culled  out  from  the  longer  roster: 
Mai.  Gen'l  Mainwaring  Hammond.  Col. 
Philip  Honeywood,  Major  Philip  Stevens, 
Thomas  Wilsford,  son  of  Sir  Thomas  Wils- 
ford;  Col.  Guy  Molesworth,  Col.  Francis 
Moryson,  John  Woodward,  Robt.  Jones, 
Anthony  Langston.  Peter  Tennings,  Tos. 
Bridges  and  Dr.  Jeremiah  Harrison. 

The  national  headquarters  of  the  So- 
ciety of  Colonial  Cavaliers  is  in  Xew  York 
City.  Its  purposes,  first  of  all,  is  the  un- 
biased study  of  American  history,  the  com- 
piling of  records  and  the  erecting  of  me- 
morials honoring  the  Colonial  Cavaliers, 
and   especially    to    concentrate    interest    in 


those  founders  of  our  commonwealth  who 
have  been  practically  forgotten  by  other 
colonial  and  patriotic  societies.  The  mem- 
bership of  the  Society  is  divided  into  two 
parts— the  Palatines,  the  descendants  of  the 
Cavaliers  who  settled  in  America  before 
1650,  and  who  were  sons,  grandsons,  or 
themselves  members  of  the  British  Nobility, 
and,  secondly,  the  Landgraves,  the  descend- 
ants of  eminent  Cavalier'  families  of  the 
British  gentry,  such  as  Catesby  ap  Catesby 
Tones  family  of  Virginia,  who  settled  in 
this  country  prior  to  the  Revolution.  Be- 
sides having  a  properly  accredited  invita- 
tion from  the  Society  in  addition  to  the 
above  somewhat  rigid'  requirements,  a  can- 
didate for  membership  must  also  be  a  de- 
scendant of  an  ancestor  of  Cavalier  ante- 
cedents who  was  a  personage  of  note,  as  a 
proprietor  of  landed  estates  or  otherwise 
in  the  Eighteenth  Century,  and  also  from 
one  whose  career  complies  with  same  con- 
ditions in  the  Nineteenth  Century. 

A  Washington  Chapter,  under  the  title  of 
the  Palatinate  of  Maryland,  was  formally 
organized  by  myself  on  Feb.  2,  1915,  at  the 
National  Capital,  thus  reviving  an  ancient 
Lord  Baltimore  designation  and  including 
the  District  of  Columbia,  which  was  in  the 
boundaries  of  Maryland  as  in  the  earliest 
colonial  era.  Mr.  Daniel  Smith  Gordon  of 
Washington,  was  appointed  Palatine  of 
Maryland.  Among  the  other  officers  ap- 
pointed, who  include  representatives  of  four 
of  the  banner  lineage  families  of  Colonial 
Maryland  and  Virginia,  were  : 

Thomas  Campbell  Washington  of  Wash- 
ington, D.  C,  1st  Deputy  Palatine;  John 
AVentworth  Calvert,  2nd  Deputy  Palatine; 
Francis  Scott  Key  Smith,  3rd  Deputy  Pala- 
tine, and  John  Ridgely.  Jr..  of  Hampton  and 
Baltimore,  4th  Deputy  Palatine.  The  Regis- 
trar, Mr.  John  Heath,  who  has  latelv  be- 
come a  resident  of  Washington,  and  the 
Historian  is  Washington's  well-known 
heraldist  and  genealogist.  Dr.  J.  G.  Baillie

Richmond,  Va. 


A  STUDY  IN  EUGENICS 

By  J.  G.  B.  Bulloch,  M.  D. 

As   we  are   nowadays  studying  heredity 

with  closer  scrutiny,  it  has  occurred  to  the 

author  of  this  article  that  it  would  be  a  good 

idea  to  make  a  list   of     certain      families 


whose  ancestry  and  history  he  is  acquainted 
with  and  in  this  way  make  a  contribution 
to  the  study  of  eugenics. 

Georgia,  the  voungest  of  the  old  thirteen, 
had  perhaps,  in  the  proportion  to  her  inhabi- 
tants, as  fine,  if  not  even  a  better  class  of  peo- 
ple than  any  of  the  other  Colonies  or  Prov- 
inces, for  she  had  the  sturdy  Highlander 
from  near  Inverness  Scotland,  the  Saltzbur- 
gher  from  the  Rhine,  the  Dorchester  Colony 
from  New  England  and  the  Scotch-Irish 
from  Ireland  as  well  as  a  few  French  set- 
tlers and  a  number  of  persons  from  the 
other  Provinces. 

Although  this  article  is  not  a  genealogical 
one  and  does  not  pretend  to  give  the  names 
and  services  of  many  families  of  sterling 
worth  and  lineage,  it  does  give  a  list  of  some 
sixty-tive  odd  persons  whose  descendants  for 
the  most  part  are  known  to  the  author  and 
with  whose  family  history  he  is  more  or 
less  acquainted,  as  he  is  of  the  same  stock 
to  a  large  degree  and  was  brought  up 
among  them. 

It  is  very  remarkable  that  nearly  all  of 
these  families  have  shown  their  good  de- 
scent by  occupying  from  generation  to  gen- 
eration positions  of  more  or  less  importance 
in  politics,  or  in  the  professions  of  law, 
medicine  and  theology,  or  as  soldiers  and 
business  men,  showing  therefore  their 
value  as  citizens. 

From  the  study,  then,  of  these  families  one 
can  see  that  such  stock  should  be  propa- 
gated. And  the  very  remarkable  thing 
about  Georgia  was  that  fine  settlement  of  St. 
John's  Parish,  now  Liberty  County, Georgia, 
whose  inhabitants  were  from  New  England 
and  went  first  to  Dorchester,  South  Caro- 
lina, thence  to  Liberty  County,  Georgia  and 
with  other  settlers  produced  a  people  un- 
paralleled in  the  annals  of  America.  The 
history  of  Midway  Church,  by  Rev.  James 
Stacy,  shows  that  this  county  has  furnished 
more  men  of  prominence  in  the  professions 
and  more  men  of  stability  than  can  be  found 
perhaps  in  any  other  countv  of  the  L'nited 
States. 

It  must  not  be  forgotten  the  part  played 
by  the  band  of  Highlanders  who  saved  the 
Province  from  the  Spaniard  and  that  Geor- 
gia was  a  bulwark  of  defence  to  the  other 
Colonies. 

The  Scotsmen  who,  as  witnesses  to  the 
Creek  Treaty  made  by  General  Oglethorpe 
with  that  Nation,  were  gentlemen  of  ancient 


3 


lineage   and   in   signing  gave  the  names  of      15 
their  fathers'  and  brothers'  estates  or  their 
places   of   residence     in      Scotland.     These      16 
gentlemen   were  among  the  "true  bine"  of      17 
the   land    from   the  best   Highland   families 
and  with  other  Scots  who  settled  in  Georgia 
were   a   great   acquisition.      Some   of   these 
families  were  of  noble  and  royal  lineage. 

It      is   also   very    remarkable   that   of   all 
these  sixty-five  names  that  with  the  excep-      18 
tion  of  a  few  individuals  confined  to  about 
three   families,  that  there  were  no  idiots  or 
imbeciles,  and   in  the  whole  number  but  a 
few  who  became  insane  and  of  the  few  who      in 
went  insane  one  can  hardly  accredit  to  the 
main  stems  or,  in  fact  account  for  the  aber- 
ration of  mind.     Indeed,  of  those  who  did 
go  insane  some  may  be  accounted  for  as  due      2o 
to  disease  not  connected  with  heredity,  and 
nearly  all  after  puberty,  or  childbirth,  one 
long  after  an  attack  of  inflammatory  rheu-      2i 
matism,  one  after  a  suspected  infection,  one 
after  becoming  deaf  from  an  attack  of  scar- 
let fever,  and  several  not  accounted  for  ex- 
cept by  some  side  line  of  descent.     In  truth.      22 
except  in  a  family  or  so,  there  has  been  but 
little  weakness  of  mind  manifested  and.  as 
before  said,  not  traceable  to  the  family  name, 
and    therefore   it    is   with   pleasure   thai   the 
following  names  are  presented  of  ancestors      2} 
of  a   great  number  of  Georgians   from   the      24 
"Coast   Country"   whose  deeds   are  of   rec- 
ord   and   whose  escutcheons   are   clear  and 
uncontaminated.    From  them  have  been  pro- 
duced   a    fine    set    of      Americans      through      25 
which  the  study  of  eugenics  becomes  inter-      26 
esting.

It  has  been  suggested  that  to  make  this 
article  of  more  interest  it  would  be  well  to 
give  in  brief  form  the  ancestry  of  those  in- 
cluded in  the  list,  thereby  showing  the  ori- 
gin of  these  families  and  their  nationality ; 
in  this  way  accounting  for  the  traits  of 
character  shown  by  them,  and  their  de- 
scendants. 

The  family    of  Adams  went  from  Massa- 


chusetts  to  South  Carolina,  thence  to  Geor- 
gia and  intermarried  with  well-known 
families  .  The  men  of  this  family  have  been 
steady,  reliable  and  brave  and  have  occu- 
pied the  position  of  soldiers  and  lawyers. 

The  family  of  Anderson  was  from  Ber- 
wick on  the  Tweed,  England;  the  ancestor 
who  went  to  Georgia  about  1763  was  mas- 
ter and  owner  of  a  vessel,  "The  Georgia  F'a- 
quet."  Sir  James  Wright  was  well  ac- 
quainted with  this  family  and  one  of  the 
sons  entered  the  Royal  Xavv,  while  the 
other  became  ancestor  of  the  well-known 
family  now  living  to  the  present  day  in 
Savannah.  They  have  two  lines  of  Scotch 
descent;  Grant  and  Wallace. 

Colonel  Kenneth  Baillie  came  to  Georgia 
as  an  independent  gentleman  and  was  a 
trustee  of  town  of  Sunbury  and  Colonel  of 
Provincial  troops.  lie  was  a  son  of  John 
Baillie  of  Balrobert  of  the  ancient  family 
of  Baillie  of  Dunain  connected  by  descent  to 
the  families  of  McKenzie,  Chisholm,  Forbes. 
Munros  and  Roses  of  Kilravock.  His  sons 
were  lieutenant-  Kenneth  and  Robert  Car- 
nibe  Baillie  and  his  daughters  Jean,  wife 
of  Andrew  Darling,  and  Ann  Elizabeth,  who 
married  Dr.  John  Irvine  of  Georgia,  sun  of 
Charles  Irvine,  of  Cults,  and  Euphemia 
Douglas  of  Tilquhillie. 

The  family  of  Baker  went  to  Georgia 
from  South  Carolina  and  were  undoubtedly 
of  English  origin.  Colonels  Win.  and  John 
Baker  were  soldiers  of  the  Revolution. 
<  Hhers  of  the  name  were  well  known  and 
Benjamin  was  a  soldier  under  General  <  >gle- 
thorpe.  The  blood  of  the  Bakers  is  in 
manv  of  the  families  of  Lower  Georgia. 
•  )f  three  families  of  Bakers  in  Georgia  we 
find  at  least  100  members  who  were  preach- 
ers, teachers,  etc. 

Robert  Bolton,  of  Savannah,  Georgia, 
[740,  held  many  positions  in  Colonial  davs 
and  was  the  son  of  Robert  Bolton  of  York- 
shire. England,  who  went  to  Philadelphia, 
Pa.,  in  t 73 1  and  was  church  warden  of 
Christ  Church.  This  is  a  verv  old  Eng- 
lish family  tracing  to  John  Bolton  of 
Blackburn,  gentleman,  anrl  descended  from 
the  Boltons  of  the  Manor  of  Little  Bolton. 
From  this  family  descends  a  branch  of  Bul- 
loch and  the  entire  Habersham  family  and  a 
branch  of  Adams.  Newell,  MacBryde,  etc. 

Colonel  John  Barnard  of  Georgia  was 
the  son  of  Sir  John  Barnard,  Lord  Mayor 
uf    London,    a    distinguished    jurist.      Col. 


John  Barnard  married  Jane  Bradley,  daugh- 
ter of  William  Bradley  of  Middlesex,  Eng- 
land, gentleman.  It  seems  quite  interesting 
from  a  standpoint  of  heredity  that  two  of 
his  descendants,  lion.  A.  Pratt  Adams,  a 
judge  of  the  Superior  Court  and  his  brother, 
Hon.  Samuel  B.  Adams.  Associate  Justice  of 
the  Supreme  Court  of  Georgia,  apparently 
inherited  their  judicial  temperament  from 
Sir  John  Barnard.  <  >ne  of  the  Barnards 
was  a  well-known  physician  of  St.  Marys, 
Georgia.  The  late  Judge  Chisholm  of  Sa- 
vannah. Ga..  was  president  of  the  Plant 
System  of  railways,  and  Lewis  T.  Turner 
was  a  well-known  cotton  broker.  These 
were  of  the  Barnard  line. 

The  well-known  Berrien  family  of  Geor- 
gia whose  ancestor  was  Maj.  John  Ber- 
rien, descended  from  Judge  Berrien  of  the 
Supreme  Court  of  Xew  Jersey.  The  family 
were  of  French  extraction.  Hon.  John  Mc- 
Pherson  Berrien,  Attorney-General  of  the 
United  States,  was  of  this  Georgia  line  as 
were  the  doctors  Charles,  William  B.  and 
Richard  B. Burroughs,  and  John  Burroughs. 
Attorney  at  Law.  This  family  of  Berrien 
has  also  the  French  line  of  Anciaux  and  the 
Scotch  of  McPherson. 

The  distinguished  Jonathan  Bryan  was 
the  son  of  Joseph  Bryan  of  South'  Carolina 
and  ha«l  men  of  note  within  its  fold,  one  a 
member  of  Congress,  one  a  naval  officer  and 
several  in  the  army  of  the  Confederate 
States  of  America.  Joseph  Bryan  of  Rich- 
mond, \  a.,  was  of  this  line.  A  branch  of 
the  Stiles  family  descends  from  this  familv 
as  do  branches  of  the  Adams's,  Xewells 
and   Kings. 

The  Candler  family  of  Georgia  descending 
from  Col.  Win.  Candler,  of  the  Revolution. 
has  furnished  a  Governor  to  the  State,  a 
Bishop  of  the  Methodist  Church,  and  others 

Hon.  Archibald  Bulloch,  President  of 
Georgia  1776-1777,  elected  as  delegate  to 
the  Continental  Congress  of  1775-1776,  was 
the  son  of  Hon.  James  Bulloch  who  went 
from  Glasgow.  Scotland,  to  South  Carolina, 
and  then  to  Georgia.  He  married  Jean 
Stobo,  daughter  of  Rev.  Archibald  Stobo  of 
Edinburgh,  Scotland, 'who  graduated  as  an 
M.  A.  at  the  University  of  Edinburgh  in 
K)')7.  who  married  Jean,  daughter  of  James 
Park,  writer,  and  Jean  Scott.  Lion.  Archi- 
bald Bulloch  married  Mary  De  Veaux. 
daughter  of  Hun.  Colonel,  James  De  Yeaux. 

Among  the  descendants  we     find     Capt. 


James  Bulloch,  of  the  Revolutionary  War, 
A.  S.  Bulloch,  Collector  of  the  Port  of  Sa- 
vannah, Hon.  YVm.  B.  Bulloch,  U.  S.  Sena- 
tor, Capt.  James  D.  Bulloch.  C.  S.  Naval 
agent  abroad,  Irvine  S.  Bulloch,  of  the  Ala- 
bama.the  distinguished  surgeon.  Dr.  Wm.  G. 
Bulloch,  and  Dr.  J.  G.  B.  Bulloch,  and 
Robert  H.  Bulloch,  draughtsman,  A.  C.  L 
R.  R.  From  this  line  of  Bulloch  Col. 
Theodore  Roosevelt  descends,  as  also  from 
Irvine,  Baillie,  De  Yeaux  and  Stewart. 

Hon.  Joseph  Clay,  Paymaster  General  of 
the  Continental  Army,  was  the  son  of  Eliza- 
beth Habersham  and  Ralph  Clay,  of  Eng- 
land. Elizabeth  Clay  was  sister  of  Hon. 
James  Habersham,  Governor  of  Georgia. 
The  family  is  well  known  in  Georgia  and 
has  furnished  men  of  sterling  worth. 

Hon.  T.  U.  P.  Charlton,  Judge  of  the 
United  States  District  Court  and  Attorney 
General  of  Georgia,  descended  from  Lieut. 
Charlton  and  Miss  Walter,  daughter  of 
Thomas  Walter,  a  distinguished  botanist 
and  naturalist.  His  son,  Hon.  Robert  M. 
Charlton,  U.  S.  Senator,  poet  and  statesman. 
His  son,  Hon.  Walter  G.  Charlton,  is  now 
Judge  of  Superior  Court.  Drs.  T.  J.  Charl- 
ton and  his  son.  Dr.  T.  J.  Charlton,  were 
\vrell  known  physicians,  both  descended 
from  Dr.  Charlton,  Senior. 

As  a  biographical  sketch  of  each  line 
will  take  too  much  space,  it  will  be  neces- 
sary to  curtail  the  sketch  of  each  line,  but 
line  after  line  could  be  written  showing  po- 
sitions held  bv  each  family. 

The  Cuthbert  family  of  Castle  Hill,  Scot- 
land, a  branch  of  which  settled  in  Georgia. 
Feudal  Barons  of  Castle  Hill  is  an  ancient 
one,  and  it  is  considered  that  the  Hon.  Seth 
John  Cuthbert  was  of  this  line.  He  married 
Mary  Clay,  daughter  of  Hon.  Joseph  Clay, 
son  of  Ralph  Clay  and  Elizabeth  Haber- 
sham, and  had  Alfred  Cuthbert,  U.  S. 
Senator,  and  Tohn  A.  Cuthbert  a  member 
of  Congress.  "The  Cuthberts  of  Castle  Hill 
and  Drakies  were  also  in  Georgia  well- 
known  as  was  the  same  family  in  South 
Carolina. 

The  Habersham  family  has  been  a  most 
distinguished  one.  Hon.  James  Habersham 
President  of  his  Majesty  Council  and  Act- 
ing Governor  of  Georgia,  was  the  son  of 
James  Habersham,  of  Beverlv,  Yorkshire. 
England.  He  married  Mary  Bolton  and 
had  three  sons,  James,  a  rebel  financier, 
speaker  of  House,  trustee  of  State  Univer- 


sity, etc. ;  Lt.  Col.  Joseph,  Postmaster  Gen- 
eral of  the  United  States;  Maj.  John  Haber- 
sham, President  of  Executive  Council  ot 
Georgia,  R.  W.  Habersham,  M.  C,  Dr.  J 
C.  and  his  son.  Dr.  J.  C.  Habersham,  both 
physicians.  Another  son,  Mayor  of  Bruns- 
wick Georgia.  From  this  family  descends 
branches  of  the  prominent  families  of  El- 
liott, Barnwell,  of  South  Carolina,  Clay, 
Cumming,  King  and  others. 

Hon.  Xoble  Jones,  President  of  his  Ma- 
jesty Council,  was  of  Lambeth  County, 
Surrey.  England.  His  son,  Noble  W. 
Jones,  was  delegate  to  the  Continental  Con- 
gress and  his  son,  Dr.  George  Jones,  United 
States  Senator,  and  his  great-grandson  Wal- 
lace Jones,  United  States  Consul  General 
to  Rome. 

The  Houstoun  family  is  of  ancient  Scotch 
lineage.  Sir  Patrick  Houstoun  was  a  mem- 
ber of  his  Majesty  Council  and  his  sons 
were  Governor  John  Houstoun  of  Georgia. 
Sir  Patrick  and  Sir  George  Houstoun,  a 
member  of  Council  of  Safety,  and  Dr. 
Tames  Houstoun,  of  the  Continental  line  of 
Georgia  Brigade,  and  Hon.  William  Hous- 
toun was  member  of  the  Convention  for  the 
adoption  of  the  Constitution. 

In  conclusion,  I  would  say  that  the^e 
early  settlers  seemed  all  imbued  with  a 
religious  spirit  and  that  they  were,  to  a 
great  extent,  honorable,  chivalrous  and 
true,  brave  and  hospitable,  and  although 
many  died  in  the  early  days  from  yellow 
and  malarial  fevers,  a  large  contingent  sur- 
vived. There  seems  to  have  been  very  few- 
cases  of  tuberculosis,  cancer  or  scrofula 
amongst  them  or  in  fact  but  little  inherited 
disease,  if  we  may  judge  by  the  stamina  of 
our  men  and  women  of  that  period.  All 
seemed  to  have  and  raise  good-sized  fami- 
lies of  healthy,  robust  children  and  although 
there  is  a  tendency  to  have  a  less  number, 
those  of  the  descendants  who  remain  are 
well  worthy  of  the  ancestors  who  aided  in 
founding  the  Colony  of  Georgia. 

Would  say  that  at  the  suggestion  of  a 
gentleman,  I  made  a  calculation  of  the  num- 
ber of  males  in  about  eleven  families  of 
those  given  in  this  paper,  of  those  who 
arose  to  positions  of  more  or  less  promi- 
nence, or  who  at  least  were  normal,  and 
found  that  at  least  ()8%  of  these  families 
had  male  descendants  who  were  normal, 
there  being  not  more  than  a  small  percent- 
age in  several  of  these  families  who  went 


insane,   and    these  almost    entirely   in   later  Knight,  Thomas  II.,  b.  Nov.  8,  1795;  d.

MUSTER  ROLL   OF  THE  -RR1G. 
GENERAL  ARMSTRONG,"   1S14 

Copied   From   the   Original  in  the  Depart- 
ments of  State.     Contributed  by   Miss 
Isabel  Smith  of  the  Library.  Naz'x 
Department 


Her  crew  consisted  of  90  men,  including 
officers.  She  was  commanded  by  Samuel 
Chester  Reid.  Captain  Reid  and  his  offi- 
cers and  his  men  received  the  thanks  of 
Congress  for  the  intrepid  valor  in  thus 
gloriouslv    maintaining    the    honor    of    the 


American  flag.  In  addition,  Congress  voted 
him  a  gold  sword. 

Captain  Reid  was  not  only  known  as  the 
valorous  commander  of  the  Armstrong, 
but  he  designed  the  present  form  of  the 
United  States  flag  as  adopted  by  Congress 
in  [818  and  which  was  first  hoisted  on 
the  Capitol  on  April   13,  of  that  year. 

The  battle  of  the  Armstrong,  or  as  it  has 
been  characterized  "The  Thermopylae  of 
the  Ocean"  was  fought  at  Fayal,  one  of  the 
Azores  or  Western  Islands  belonging  to 
Portugal. 

Captain  Reid  reached  Fayal  at  noon  on 
the  26th  day  of  September,  and  ran  into 
the  bay  of  the  town  of  Da  I  Iorta.  Cap- 
tain Reid  had  gone  ashore  to  make  ar- 
rangements with  the  American  Consul 
Mr.  John  B.  Dabney,  for  fresh  supplies 
and  water.  About  sundown  the  British 
Brig  of  War  Carnation  hove  in  sight  fol- 
lowed by  the  frigate  Rosa  and  ship  of 
the  line  Plantagenet.  The  squadron  was 
on  its  way  to  join  Cochran's  fleet  at 
Jamaica.  That  evening-  a  desperate  battle 
ensued,  resulting"  in  a  victory  for  the 
Americans,  they  having  defeated  an  over- 
whelming  force. 

The  Long  Tom,  the  gun  that  did  such 
wonderful  work  on  the  Armstrong,  was  pre- 
sented to  the  United  States  by  the  Portu- 
guese Government  and  arrived  in  Xew  York 
on  the  ship  Vega  on  April  18,  1893,  and 
was  sent  to  the  Chicago  Exhibition.  It  is 
now  in  the  Xavv  Yard  in  Washington,

It  seems,  to  the  casual  observer,  to  be 
fashionable  in  the  United  States  to  be- 
little ancestry  and  pride  of  birth.  But 
these  same  people  who  do  this,  when  talk- 
ing- of  their  own  forbears,  will  in  the 
same  conversation,  take  great  pleasure  in 
telling  one  the  pedigree  of  any  good  cow, 
horse,  dog,  or  pigeon  they  may  possess, 
The  writer's  own  experience  in  this  matter, 
is  that  persons  who  profess  to  take  no  in- 
terest in  their  lineage,  are  either  those  who 
are  ignorant  of  their  forefathers  or  are 
descended  from  those  of  whom  they  are 
ashamed.  Pride  of  birth  on  proper  lines 
can  do  no  harm  to  any  individual,  and  each 
should  be  stimulated  by  it  to  so  bear  himself 
that  his  family  name  should  become  a  syn- 
onym for  what  is  right  and  a  passport 
to  the  good  will  of  those  with  whom  he 
comes  in  contact. 

"Superior  worth  your  rank  requires 
For  this  mankind  reveres  your  sires. 
If  you  degenerate  your  race 
Their  merit  heightens  your  disgrace." 

We  as  a  people  are  prone  to  talk  of  and 
laud  self-made  men.  Why  not  give  a  part 
of  the  credit  for  success  to  the  ancestors, 
who  by  their  lives  and  examples  have 
helped  to  pave  the  way  to  future  glory?  Dr. 
Holmes  in  "The  Autocrat"  says  "he  has 
met  so  many  self-made  men  who  were 
spoiled  in  the  making,  that  he  prefers  to 
meet  the  men  that  God  made." 


OUR  SOCIETY. 

The  January  Meeting  was  at  1609  Ho- 
bart  Street.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Frank  S.  Parks 
were  hosts  and  well  did  they  do  the  honors. 
The  principal  event  of  the  evening  was  the 
installment  of  officers  for  the  current  year. 
The  February  Meeting  took  place  at  Miss 
Lillian  A.  Norton's  residence.  It  was  a 
most  successful  and  interesting  one.  Fol- 
lowing the  policy  of  our  new  President,  Dr. 
St.  Clair,  less  time  was  spent  with  small 
business  matters  and  more  in  general  dis- 
cussion of  genealogical  matters.     Dr.  Bul- 


loch made  an  address  on  The  Anglo-Saxon 
Race,  supplemented  by  remarks  in  same  line 
by  Mr.  Gordon  and  others.  And  arrange- 
ments were  made  for  the  Annual  Banquet 
to  be  held  at  Richmond  Hotel,  March  9th. 
The  March  Meeting  was  at  Dr.  Bulloch's 
home.  Real  Georgia  hospitality  and  cor- 
diality were  dispensed  freely  by  the  Dr.  and 
Mrs.  Bulloch,  and  Miss  Emma  Bulloch 
The  Dr.  read  a  paper  on  a  subject  which  is 
of  deep  human  interest  and  but  little  known 
of  by  Americans,  viz:  "The  Secret  Declara- 
tion of  Independence."  showing  the  natural 
timidity  of  the  members  of  our  Continental 
Congress  as  they  approached  so  grave  a 
matter  as  separation  from  our  Mother 
Country. 


OUR  ANNUAL  BANQUET. 

The  National  Genealogical  Society  met 
for  its  Annual  Banquet  at  Hotel  Richmond, 
Washington,  D.  C,  on  the  evening  of 
March  Qth.  The  gathering  was  a  little 
larger  than  of  recent  years,  and  as  an  en- 
tertainment it  was  a  success.  The  dinner 
was  well  served,  everybody  looked  pleased, 
and  at  a  reasonable  hour,  filled  with  enough 
genealogical  inspiration  to  last  till  1916,  and 
a  coming  appetite  for  the  next  banquet,  the 
company  parted,  satisfied  with  the  occasion. 

The  proprietor  of  the  Richmond  is  to  be 
complimented  for  the  ease  with  which  he 
takes  care  of  his  guests. 

(  )ur  newly  elected  President,  Dr.  Francis 
A.  St.  Clair  headed  the  table  and  acted  as 
toastmaster  when  the  time  came  for  mental 
refreshments,  which  were  dispensed  as  fol- 
lows, and  which  were  heard  with  much  in- 
terest by  all  because  the  speaker  talked 
about  things  connected  with  the  purposes  of 
the  Society. 

Mrs.  Ruth  M.  G.  Pealer  gave  an  account 
of  the  Society  from  an  historical  standpoint. 
Ex-President  Alfred  B.  Dent  spoke  also  in 
the  same  strain  adding  much  to  the  knowl- 
edge of  the  more  recent  members  in  Na- 
tional Genealogical  Society  doings  in  the 
past.  Ex-President  Dr.  Jos.  G.  B.  Bulloch 
made  a  happy  address  on  "The  Progress  of 
the  World  Since  the  Dawn  of  Civilization." 
The  Dr.  believes  firmly  in  the  "Brotherhood 
of  Man"  and  thinks  we  will  get  to  the 
brotherhood  plane  at  some  time  in  the  fu- 
ture. For  the  present  he  with  most  of  u.s 
prefers  to  select  his  brethren  from  those 
of  good  ancestry  and  ancient  lineage.  Judge 
Fenton  W.  Booth  talked  generally  of  gen- 


ealogy.  He  made  a  telling  hit  by  the  way 
he  told  of  answering  a  man  who  had  twitted 
him  for  bearing  the  name  of  Booth ;  Booth 
being  a  name  connected  with  one  of  the  sad 
incidents  of  American  history  as  well  as 
being  the  name  of  the  greatest  and  most 
talented  actor  our  Country  has  ever  pro- 
duced. Our  Editor  Daniel  Smith  Gordon 
delivered  a  sketch  on  "Mary  Washington, 
Mother  of  the  Immortal  George,"  in  which 
he  showed  how  much  we  owe  to  Alary 
(Ball)  Washington  for  the  career  of  her 
illustrious  son.  Washington's  father  died 
when  he  was  eleven  years  old,  so  his  bring- 
ing up  devolved  almost  entirely  on  his  faith- 
ful, devoted  and  capable  mother. 

Among  those  present  may  be  noted  Dr. 
Jos.  G.  B.  Bulloch,  Mrs.  Bulloch,  Miss  Em- 
ma Hamilton  Bulloch,  Dr.  St.  Clair  and 
Mrs.  St.  Clair,  Mrs.  Pealer,  Miss  Norton, 
Mrs.  Wood,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Brumbaugh,  Dr. 
Bukev.  Miss  Nash,  Mrs.  Grant,  Mr.  Alfred 
B.  Dent  and  Miss  Dent,  Mrs.  Marsh.  Mrs. 
Stewart,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Fernald,  Mrs.  Er- 
win.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  R.  A.  Smith,  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  F.  S.  Parks,  Mrs.  Bukey.  Dr.  Alac- 
Bryde.  Daniel  Smith  Gordon,  Miss  Norris, 
Mr.  Stewart,  Dr.  Bowker.  Mr.  Woodward, 
Miss  Cora  C.  Curry,  Air.  Gerald,  Airs.  Sut- 
field,  Air.  Evans,  and  others. 

Dr.  Ridpath  says:  "The  man  or  woman 
who  knows  nothing  of  the  past  is  excluded 
from  the  best  inheritance  of  mankind. 
Such  a  one  must  be  content  to  live  with  little 
influence  among  his  fellows  and  to  meet 
the  great  without  a  look  of  recognition."

d.  1773.  and  Geo.  Smith,  whose  da.  Anna 
married  Jacob  Harbaugh  in  April,  1761.  As 
both  these  Smiths  lived  in  that  part  of  the 
County  known  as  Harbaugh's  Valley,  it 
is  easy  to  believe  them  brothers.  Was 
their  father  Samuel  Smith  of  York  County, 
Pennsylvania?  Family  records  say  the 
Smiths  came  from  York  County,  Pennsyl- 
vania.

1717,  he  was  possibly  a  member  of  this 
family,  and  you  may  be  able  to  prove  it 
either  by  land  records  in  Westmoreland,  or 
by  wills  and  deeds  in  Stafford  or  some  ad- 
joining county.

THE  MOTHS  OF  ED  EX 
From  the  Boston  Transcript 

Bobbie's  mother  had  just  taken  out  her 
winter  garments. 

"Ma,"  said  the  observant  little  fellow, 
"what  did  moths  live  on  before  Adam  and 
Eve  wore  clothes?" 


A  bright  little  Washington  boy  who  was 
bountifully  supplied  with  toys  on  Christ- 
mas morning,  said  to  his  father:  "Oh,  papa. 
If  you  were  only  me,  you  would  know  how 
happy  I  am  to-day." 


HOUSEHOLD  CARES. 
From  the  Providence  Tribune 
"Why  is  it  that  you  can  never  stay  any- 
where very  long?" 

"I  have  to  go  home  and  empty  the  drip 
pan   under  the  refrigerator." 


From  Colliers  Weekly. 

It  is  something  to  have  loved  our  South 
Carolina  as  we  loved  her  when  she  was 
brooding  like  an  angel  with  broken  wings 
over  the  ruins  of  her  sovereignty. — Anita 
Fitch. 


TOO  OLD  TO  LEARN 
From  the  Philadelphia  Public  Ledger 

"Sweet  are  the  uses  of  adversity," 
quoted  the  confirmed  quoter. 

"I  believe  it,"  retorted  the  dissatisfied 
one,  "but,  somehow  or  other,  I  don't  seem 
to  be  able  to  cultivate  a  taste  for  it." 


Society  is  like  a  large  piece  of  frozen 
water ;  and  skating  well  is  the  great  art 
of  social  life. — L.  E.  London. 


KENTUCKY  RECORDS. 

Contributed  by  IV.  J '.  Gammon, 

Louisville,  Ky. 

Marriage  records  of  Jefferson  County,  Ky.  (Louisville,  County  seat),  from  the  ear- 
liest, 1784  to  1800.  Jefferson  was  one  of  the  three  original  counties  into  which  Kentucky 
Territory  was  divided,  when  separated  from  Virginia.  Fayette  and  Lincoln  were  the 
other  two. 

In  copying  these  records  some  were  found  dim  and  obscure;  in  all  such  cases  the 
name  was  carefully  compared  with  the  indexes  of  the  marriage  records,  both  an  old  one 
and  a  new  one,  and  in  some  cases  with  the  index  of  deed  records. 

These  abbreviations  are  used  in  the  copying  in  this  list :  Spin,  means  that  the  records 
have  spinster  after  the  lady's  name;  Wid.  that  it  has  widow;  Wid.  Jno.  or  dau.  Jno. 
means  that  the  lady  was  the  widow  or  the  daughter  of  a  man  by  the  same  name  as  the 
lady ;  if  any  other  name,  it  is  given. 

The  dates  are  given,  first  number  of  month,  then  day  of  month,  then  \ear.

THE  RICHARDSON  FAMILY 
Contributed  by  Miss  Lillian  A.  Norton. 

While  the  history  and  genealogy  of  the 
Richardson  family,  since  they  came  to 
America,  is  in  the  main  well  authenticated 
by  family  and  public  records,  the  circum- 
stances attending  their  original  immigration, 
although  comparatively  recent,  are,  as  with 
most  of  the  original  immigrants,  entirely 
dependent  upon  tradition. 

From  the  most  authentic  accounts,  which, 
although  tradition,  were  obtained,  by  per- 
sons still  living,  from  members  of  the  orig- 
inal family,  it  appears  that  in  the  early 
part  of  the  18th  century,  two  brothers,  Ste- 
phen and  Hugh  Richardson,  supposed  to 
have  been  Englishmen,  and  according  to 
one  account,  soldiers  who  had  been  dis- 
charged from  the  British  Army  at  Boston, 
settled  near  Londonderry,  Ireland,  where 
in  time,  Stephen  eloped  with  and  married 
Jane  Montgomery,  a  daughter  of  an  influ- 
ential family  living  near  that  city,  and  who, 
tradition  says,  was  an  Aunt  of  Gen.  Rich- 
ard Montgomery,  who  was  killed  at  Que- 
bec; the  details  of  the  elopement  being  also 
given  with  some  particularity. 

Having  thereby  incurred  the  ill  will  of 
the  Montgomerys,  and  being  also  suspected 
of  disloyalty  to  the  new  Dynasty,  they  con- 
cluded to  emigrate,  and  accordingly  in  Oct. 
1738,  they  left  for  America.  Of  Hugh, 
who  went  to  the  Barbadoes,  nothing  fur- 
ther is  known,  but  Stephen,  with  his  wife, 
and  several,  tradition  says  two  children,  a 
son  James  and  a  daughter,  who  dying,  was 
replaced  by  a  son  Stephen,  born  during  the 
voyage,  came  to  Gloucester,  Mass. 

Of  the  subsequent  history  of  Stephen 
and  his  wife,  nothing  whatever  is  known, 
even  from  tradition  ;  but  as  the  records  of 
Gloucester,  which  are  quite  full,  do  not  re- 
fer to  any  matters  connected  with  the  family 
for  fourteen  years,  although  several  chil- 
dren are  known  to  have  been  born  within 
that  period,  and  one  of  them,  Thomas,  with- 


in less  than  a  year,  it  is  supposed  that  he 
remained  in  Gloucester  but  a  short  time. 

The  family,  besides  those  who  died  in 
childhood,  consisted,  according  to  record, 
of  five  sons :  James  who  was  born  before 
emigration ;  Stephen,  who  was  born  on  the 
voyage  to  America,  Thomas,  Hugh  and 
Elijah;  but  the  first  reference  to  any  of 
them  was  the  marriage  of  James  Richard- 
son on  Mar.  19,  1752,  by  the  Rev.  Benj. 
Bradstreet,  and  followed  by  the  record  of 
the  birth  successively,  of  his  first  five  chil- 
dren. Ten  years  later  is  noted  the  marriage 
of  Stephen,  hailing  from  Londonderry,  N. 
II.,  where  in  1764,  his  oldest  son  was  born. 

It  seems  probable,  therefore,  that  Stephen, 
Sr.,  who,  tradition  says,  was  a  farmer,  find- 
ing Gloucester  not  adapted  to  his  calling, 
and  influenced  possibly  by  the  name,  finally 
settled  in  Londonderry,  N.  H.,  where  his 
three  younger  sons,  and  possibly  other  chil- 
dren were  born,  and  where  he  and  his  wife 
probably  ended  their  days. 

As  his  sons  severally  reached  manhood, 
they  returned  to  Gloucester  and  married ; 
James,  Stephen,  Thomas  and  Elijah,  mar- 
rying respectively,  Rachel,  Elizabeth  and 
Margaret,  daughters,  and  Jemima,  a  niece 
of  Daniel  Gott,  son  of  Samuel  Gott  of  Wen- 
ham,  Mass.,  whose  grandfather,  Charles, 
the  original  emigrant  of  the  name,  came 
over  in  1628,  with  John  Endicott,  after- 
wards Governor  of  the  Province ;  and  Hugh 
marrying  Elizabeth  Clark. 

In  1763,  the  first  year  after  the  settling 
of  Mt.  Desert  Island  by  Abraham  Somes, 
James  Richardson  moved  there,  followed 
in  a  few  years  by  three,  and  probably  all 
four  of  the  Richardson  families,  Hugh's 
movements,  however,  being  uncertain. 
James  and  Stephen  located  at  the  head  of 
Somes  Sound ;  Thomas  at  Bass  Harbor, 
and  Elijah  near  the  Narrows.  Stephen, 
however,  remained  at  Somes  Sound  only  a 
short  time,  when  he  too  moved  to  Bass  Har- 
bor, settling  on  the  west  side  of  the  Harbor, 
at  what  has  recently  been  known  as  "Crock- 
ett's   Point ;"    where   his  younger  children 


and  many  of  his  grandchildren  were  born, 
and  where  he  and  his  wife  passed  all  the 
remaining  years  of  their  lives.  Elijah  how- 
ever remained  on  the  Island  but  a  short 
time,  when  he  returned  to  Steele,  Mass., 
where  his  three  younger  children  were  born. 
The  houses  originally  built,  have  of 
course,  long  since  gone  out  of  existence, 
but  after  the  lapse  of  more  than  a  century 
the  debris  of  their  cellars  still  remain,  that 
of  Stephen,  again  doing  duty  for  a  recent 
structure,  while  that  of  Thomas  marks  the 
spot  where,  in  1766,  his  house  was  burned, 
his  two  children  narrowly  escaping  the 
flames. 

From  the  public  records,  the  Richardson 
brothers  seem  to  have  been  quite  prominent 
in  local  history  from  the  first  settlement  of 
the  Island.  Stephen  Richardson's  house 
was  the  usual  place  for  public  meeting,  and 
James  Richardson  was  always  Clerk.  At 
the  organization  of  the  "Plantationa"  March 
30,  1776,  Stephen  and  Thomas  were  put  on 
the  "Committee  of  Public  Safety."  On  Oct. 
8,  1776,  Stephen  was  chosen  the  first  Repre- 
sentative from  Mt.  Desert  Island  to  the 
"General  Court"  (Legislature)  of  Massa- 
chusetts, and  at  the  first  meeting  held  April 
6,  1789,  for  Town  organization  under  the 
Federal  Constitution,  all  three  were  elected 
to  prominent  official  positions. 

The  records  kept  by  James  Richardson  of 
the  various  public  meetings  are  still  preserv- 
ed, although  somewhat  faded,  and  show 
him  to  have  been  a  man  of  cultivation,  and 
his  brothers  were  probably  equally  so. 
Stephen  built  the  first  mill  at  Bass  Harbor 
and  opened  the  first  public  road  between 
Bass  Harbor  and  Beech  Hill,  and  was  re- 
membered by  his  immediate  descendants 
as  a  man  of  marked  ability. 

James  and  Thomas  were  also  prominent 
in  religious  matters,  being  members  of  the 
first  religious  organization  on  the  Island,  of 
which  James  kept  the  records  until  on  Dec. 
12,  1807  he  closed  life's  final  record,  and 
was  laid  beneath  the  sod  at  Somesville. 
Stephen,  however,  appears  never  to  have 
joined  any  religious  body,  and  according 
to  the  statements  of  persons  still  living, 
finally  died  on  Beach  Hill,  in  181 2,  at  the 
residence  of  his  oldest  son,  his  remains 
being  taken  back  to  Bass  Harbor  for  inter- 
ment beside  his  wife.  Near  by,  a  depres- 
sion in  the  sod  marks  the  final  resting  place 


of  Thomas,  but  the  date  of  his  death  is  not 
known,  neither  is  it  known  when  or  where 
the  other  brothers,  Hugh  or  Elijah,  were 
finally  gathered  to  their  fathers. 

The  foregoing  is  believed  to  be  a  sub- 
stantially correct  synopsis  of  the  history  of 
the  original  "Richardson  Family"  of  Mt. 
Desert. 

The  appended  Table,  compiled  from 
family  and  public  records,  gives  the  family 
succession  for  the  first  three  generations, 
embracing  about  one  half  of  the  period 
elapsed  since  they  came  to  America.

A  MUCH  MISSPELLED  SURNAME. 
By  Herbert  P.  Gerald. 
Variations  in  the  spelling  of  names  is  one 
of  the  vexations  of  genealogists.  The  re- 
cent marriage  of  my  nephew,  Ralph  E. 
Jerrell — at  Bridgeton,  N.  J.,  the  county  seat 
of  Cumberland  County — led  me  to  examine 
the    Marriage    Records,    which    were   kept 


35 


there  from  1795  to  1878  only,  to  see  just 
how  our  surname  (derived  from  "Fitz- 
Gerald")  had  been  spelled  in  these  records. 
The  family  has  been  in  this  county  since 
about  1700;  when  "Edward  Fitzgerald" 
bought  100  acres  from  Judge  Obadiah 
Holmes,  and  "Martha  FitzGerald"  was  a 
witness  to  the  will  of  Anthony  Dickson, 
both  at  "Greenwitch"  in  what  was  then 
Salem  County.  With  nearly  one  hundred 
occurrences  of  this  surname  in  these  records 
(from  which  name  the  "Fitz"  was  dropped 
about  1775)  I  found  on  a  hasty  search, 
which  doubtless  missed  some  of  them,  at 
least  twenty-one  different  ways  of  spelling 
it.  all  the  persons  being  of  known  family 
relationship;  and  only  once  was  it  written 
"Terrell,"  which  is  now  the  more  common 
way  of  spelling  it  in  that  region..  The 
twenty-one  ways  were  as  follows,  arranged 
alphabetically  : — Garrell.  Geril,  Gerill,  Gerl, 
Gerrel.  Gerrell.  Giles,  Jarl,  Jarls,  Jarrel, 
Jarrell,  Jeerles,  Jeral,  Jerell,  Jerl,  Jerrel, 
Jerrell.  Jerril,  Jerrill,  Jerrold,  Jirrell. 

All  these  ways  except  "Giles"  are  varia- 
tions in  the  spelling  (or  rather  the  misspell- 
ing) of  the  one  correct  form  ;  but  "Giles"  of 
course  is  a  blunder  and  gets  into  another 
family ;  yet  it  is  a  blunder  made  several 
times  in  these  records,  and  once  for  my  own 
Aunt  Anna.  The  correct  form  "Gerald" 
does  not  appear  in  these  records,  though 
found  occasionally  in  the  local  newspapers 
reporting  these  marriages. 

My  father  was  one  of  nine  children,  all 
of  whom  married — his  father  being  called 
"Jerrill'  and  his  (my  father's)  three  uncles 
being  called  "Gerald,"  "Jerrel"  and  "Jarrel." 
respectively,  on  their  tombstones — and  the 
surname  of  these  nine  brothers  and  sisters 
was  spelled  in  their  marriage  certificates, 
the  records,  and  newspaper  notices  in  at 
least  nine  different  ways — once  as  "Giles" 
(as  above  noted)  and  three  times  as  "Jer- 
rold,"— as  follows:  Gerrell,  Giles,  Jarrels. 
Terrel,  Jerrell,  Jerrels,  Jerril,  Jerrold,  Tir- 
rell 

Furthermore,  in  this  county  since  1700  I 
have  found  this  same  family  name  spelled 
in  sixty-four  different  styles,  not  as  it  might 
have  been,  but  as  it  actually  has  been  spelled 
— in  family  Bibles,  Graveyards,  church  rec- 
ords, wills,  deeds,  court  records,  marriage 
records,  newspapers,  etc. — in  eighteen  ways 
after   the   initial    F,   sixteen   after   G,   and 


thirty  after  J,  and  with  the  ending  d  four- 
teen ways,  /  forty  ways,  and  j  ten  ways ; 
while  the  sound  of  the  name  (disregarding 
the  "Fitz")  has  remained  substantially  the 
same. 

Can  any  other  family  beat  this  for  varia- 
tions? 


At  the  April  meeting  of  the  Society  Dr. 
G.  M.  Brumbaugh  (who  by-the-way  is  a 
cousin  of  the  present  strenuous  Governor 
of  Pennsylvania)  gave  some  interesting 
data  in  regard  to  the  Maryland  Census  of 
1776.  Probably  very  few  genealogists  have 
ever  heard  that  there  was  a  census  taken  in 
Maryland  before  that  of  1790.  As  this 
newly  discovered  census  antedates  the  latter 
one  by  fourteen  years  it  must  become  of 
incalculable  value  to  all  who  are  searching 
•for  Marvland  families. 


It  is  to  be  regretted  that  no  one  has  ever 
had  the  time,  opportunity  and  means  to 
compile  and  publish  a  complete  list  of  Marv- 
land and  Virginia  immigrants  with  their 
descendants  to  1700  such  as  Savage's 
Genealogical  Dictionary  of  the  settlers  of 
New  England.  As  the  interest  in  genealog- 
ical matters  is  constantly  increasing  it  is  to 
be  hoped  that  some  one  will  make  his  name 
immortal  by  publishing  such  a  work.  The 
same  might  also  be  said  in  regard  to  the 
other  Southern  States,  and  Xew  Jersey 
and  Pennsvlvania. 


We  consider  the  Kentucky  Records,  now 
being  printed  in  this  magazine,  one  of  the 
most  valuable  contributions  to  genealogical 
literature  of  the  present  time.  These  rec- 
ords will  enable  many  of  our  southern  and 
western  friends  to  connect  their  lines  of 
descent  with  the  east.  These  records  will 
be  completed  in  this  volume,  and  subscribers 
should  be  careful  to  preserve  all  copies,  as 
this  article  will  become  of  greater  value  as 
time  passes.  In  fact  it  is  worth  more  now 
than  the  cost  of  a  year's  subscription.

The  last  N.  G.  S.  Quarterly  gratefully 
acknowledged  the  donation  by  Air.  Alger- 
non A.  Aspinwall,  Historian  of  the  Society 
of  Mayflower  Descendants  of  the  District 
of  Columbia,  of  three  specially  prepared 
manuscript  lists  of  Passengers  in  the  May- 
flower, and  their  children ;  with  deepest 
gratitude  the  important  announcement  is 
now  made  that  Mr.  Aspinwall  has  added 
to  that  valued  gift  a  full  list  of  the  Grand- 
children of  the  Mayflower  Passengers. 
This  splendid  compilation,  completed  after 
more  than  eighteen  years  of  patient  research 
and  verification  from  original  and  official 
sources,  consists  of  forty-nine  pages  of 
manuscript,  legal  size,  comes  with  peculiar 
authority  from  the  eminent  Historian  of 
the  Society  of  Mayflower  Descendants  of 
the  District  of  Columbia,  whose  careful  ex- 
actitude is  well  recognized  •especially  in 
Mayflower  circles.

ington, but  the  artist's  name  had  been  for- 
gotten. For  over  seventy-five  years  the 
painting  hung  in  the  House  of  Representa- 
tives exposed  to  the  natural  ravages  of  time. 
dust  and  soot,  daubed  bv  oretended  retouch- 
ers and  restorers,  until  but  little  remained 
of  its  original  glory,  moreover,  a  book  or 


two  had  been  thrown  through  it  in  times 
of  festive  last  sessions  which  sometimes  oc- 
cured  in  olden  times,  until  it  seemed  to  be 
but  a  huge,  flabby,  dirty,  wabbling  canvas, 
badly  torn  on  the  one  side,  and  dimly  show- 
ing to  the  right  an  imposing  standing  figure, 
while  the  surface  was  a  mass  of  rough  scal- 
ing paint  pealing  off;  quite  unfit  for  the 
splendid  new  Capitol  iof  the  grand  old 
State  of  Kentucky.  It  was  given  to  the 
State  Historical  Society.  Mrs.  Morton 
prized  the  gift,  raised  funds,  and  started 
the  movement  to  have  it  sent  to  the  artist 
Pasquale  Farina  of  Philadelphia,  meantime 
Mrs.  Mary  C.  Haycroft,  Assistant  Libra- 
rian of  Kentucky,  had  discovered  that  the 
artist  who  had  painted  the  picture  was 
Oliver  Frazer,  born  in  Kentucky  in  1808, 
died  1864,  at  his  home  near  Lexington.  On 
February  22,  last,  the  most  notable  celebra- 
tion of  Washington's  birthday  ever  ob- 
served in  Frankfort  took  place  in  the  Hall 
of  Fame,  of  the  Kentucky  State  Historical 
Society,  one  of  the  handsomest  parts  of 
the  beautiful  new  State  House,  in  honor  of 
the  unveiling  of  the  portrait,  by  Mrs. 
Morton,  in  the  presence  of  the  Governor, 
State  officers  and  honored  guests.

Rev.  Dr.  Horace  Edwin  Hayden,  the 
distinguished  compiler  of  Virginia  Genealo- 
gies, as  Librarian  of  this  Society  has  ar- 
ranged for  an  exchange  with  the  National 
Genealogical  Society  Quarterly,  and  has 
presented  four  volumes  of  their  compre- 
hensive publications,  1905  to  1912  inclusive, 
and  promises  others.  Speaking  of  the 
splendid  library  at  Wilkes  Barre,  and  of 
the  Bibliography,  Dr.  Hayden  says  that  the 
society  "does  not  publish  genealogy  as 
such",  but  that  it  "does  publish  all  the 
Vital  Statistics  obtainable"  of  that  section 
and  "genealogy  prior  to  1800".  For  in- 
stance in  Vol.  XII,  1912,  appears  a  list  of 
412  volumes  of  Heraldry;  and  in  an  article 
regarding  the  Wyoming  Massacre,  of  July 
3,  177S,  applications  for  pensions  make 
known  four  names  o>f  persons  engaged 
therein,  whose  names  do  not  appear  on  the 
monument.  Applications  for  pensions  for 
Revolutionary  War  services.  Vital  Statis- 
tics. Parish  Registers,  and  Biograr>hi°s  of 
deceased  members,  giving  ancestry  back  to 
their  emigrant  forbears,  are  among  the  ar- 
ticles ful'  of  valuable  information,  in  the 
same  issue.

FIRST  BOH'KERS  IN  NEW 
ENGLAND. 


By  Edgar  M.  Booker. 


The  above  is  the  more  familiar  present 
day  spelling  of  a  family  name  which  has 
been  variously  spelt  Boker,  Booker,  Bouker, 
Bucar,  Buker,  Boucker,  Boucher  and 
Boocher. 

In  Hardsley's  "Dictionary  of  English  and 
Welsh  Surnames"  both  Bowker  and  Booker 
are  given  as  descriptive  of  the  occupation 
butcher,    which    in    French     is    "boucher." 


Burke's  "Colonial  Gentry"  states  that  "This 
family  is  believed  to  be  identical  with  that 
of  Bourchier."  One  of  the  Bowker  Families 
in  England  claim  that  according  to  tradition 
their  ancestors  lost  all  of  their  estates 
through  adherence  to  the  Pretender 
(Charles  Stuart)  and  were  compelled  to 
change  their  names  from  Bouchier  to  Bow- 
ker. It  seems  reasonable  to  suppose  that 
like  changes  might  have  been  made  cen- 
turies before  by  reason  of  political  or 
religious  zeal.  Hardsley  mentions  a  Bow- 
ker in  County  Lancaster  as  early  as  1332, 
and  a  Bouker  in  County  Norfolk  in  1273. 
There  is  a  possibility  that  a  change  of 
name  was  made  about  the  time  of  the  Nor- 
man Conquest.  Although  the  origin  of  the 
name  is  variously  spoken  of  as  English  and 
Swedish,  the  evidence  would  seem  to  point 
more  to  an  early  French  descent. 

Edmund  or  Edmond  was  a  resident  jf 
Dorchester,  Massachusetts,  in  1646  and  is 
undoubtedly  the  first  Bowker  in  New  Eng- 
land, if  not  in  America.  A  James  Bowker 
is  found  to  have  been  a  resident  of  Scituate, 
Mass.,  in  1680,  but  there  is  nothing  to  show 
that  they  were  relatives.  James  might 
have  been  a  son  of  Edmund  born  prior  to 
the  settlement  of  the  family  in  Dorchester. 

Edmund's  wife  was  Ellen  Smyth,  daugh 
ter  of  Thomas  and  Ann  Smyth,  of  London. 
She  died  in  Dorchester,  January  21,  1659- 
60,  and  he  married  very  soon  thereafter  a 
Mary  Potter,  whose  ancestry  is  unknown. 

By  his  first  wife  he  had  born  in  Dorches- 
ter, John  Bowker  (1651?),  who  married 
Mary  How,  daughter  of  Abraham  and  Han- 
nah (Ward)  How  and  through  whom  the 
Marlboro  Branch  of  the  family  trace  their 
lineage.. 

By  his  second  wife  he  had  Elizabeth  and 
Edmund,  both  born  in  Dorchester,  and 
Mary,  born  in  Sudbury.  Edmund,  son  of 
Edmund,  is  at  the  head  of  another  large  line 
of  descendants,  known  as  the  Sudbury 
Branch. 

Of  Edmund,  Sr.,  we  know  very  little.  A 
farmer,  of  course,  as  were  practically  all  of 
the  colonists,  a  member  of  the  artillery  com- 
pany in  Dorchester,  fence  viewer  and  held 
other  minor  civil  offices.  A  life  typical  of 
the  times,  private  life  combined  with  political 
and  military  service. 

John,  his  eldest  son,  was  a  carpenter  by 
trade,  served  as  selectman  in  Marlboro  for 
some  six  or  seven  years,  was  an  ensign  in 


42 


the  militia  and  died  possessed  of  what  was 
then  considered  a  large  estate.  He  is  first 
mentioned  in  Marlboro  Records,  October  i, 
1^>75,  when  "John  Bowcer"  and  others  were 
chosen  in  case  of  assault  to  assist  in  defend- 
ing the  house  of  Thomas  Rice.  Later  on 
he  is  mentioned  many  times  as  "Insign 
John  Bowker."  He  was  a  member  of  the 
Church  of  Marlboro  and  was  made  a  free- 
man in  1691.  He  died  August  27,  1721, 
age  seventy-four.  His  sons  were  John, 
Asa  and  Ezekiel. 

Edmund,  son  of  Edmund,  married  in 
Sudbury,  March  29,  16S8,  Sarah,  daughter 
of  John  and  Elizabeth   (  )   Par- 

menter,  and  had  seven  children  born  in 
that  town.  He  was  drowned  in  March, 
1706,  when  forty-five  years  of  age.  His 
Widow  "Sarah  Boucker"  was  appointed 
administratrix  of  his  estate  and  was  a  peti- 
tioner in  protest  against  the  separation  of 
the  town  of  Sudbury. 

Of  James  Bowker  of  Scituate  we  know- 
very  little.  His  farm  was  laid  out  on  the 
east  of  Burnt  Plain  and  west  of  Samuel 
Bryants.  Mary,  the  wife  of  "James  Bucer," 
was  baptised  in  the  2nd  Church  of  Scituate 
in  16S6,  and  nearly  all  of  their  twelve  chil- 
dren were  baptised  there  in  later  years. 

The  subject  of  this  sketch  is  a  descendant 
of  John,  of  Marlboro,  through  his  son  John, 
his  first  child,  born  September.  .  .  .1679,  m 
Marlboro.  He  married  Ruth  Howe,  daugh- 
ter of  Josiah  and  Mary  (Haynes)  How"  of 
Marlboro.  Three  sons  were  born  to  this 
union,  John,  Josiah  and  Antipierce. 

Josiah  married  Hazadiah  Eager  of  West- 
boro,  Mass.,  daughter  of  Captain  James 
and  Tabitha  (Howe)  Eager,  March  29, 
1733.  and  were  blessed  with  fifteen  chil- 
dren, all  born  in  Westboro.  In  1766  that 
part  of  Westboro  in  which  they  lived  was 
set  off  and  became  known  as  Northboro. 
and  in  the  Massachusetts  Census  of  1700, 
we  find  "Josiah  Bouker"  living  in  North- 
boro with  a  family  of  two  males  over  six- 
teen years  of  age,  besides  himself,  and  two 
females.  In  the  "Mass.  Soldiers,  War  of 
Revolution"  his  name  appears  as  Lieutenant 
in  Seth  Rice's  Company,  Col.  Job  Cushing's 
Regiment. 

Antipas,  his  second  child,  and  son.  was 
born  October  3,  1733,  and  married  Esther 
Rice  of  Marlboro,  daughter  of  Geden  and 

Esther  ( )  Rice.  October  r>, 

1757.     They  had  twelve  children  and  lived 


on  part  of  the  home  farm.  He  was  a  pri- 
vate from  Northboro  in  Capt.  Timothy 
Brigham's  Company,  Col.  Job  Cushing's 
Regiment,  and  later  in  Capt.  Nathan 
Fisher's  Company  and  Ebenezer  Belknap's 
Company,  both  of  Col.  Nathaniel  Wade's 
Regiment.  He  died  in  Northboro,  Novem- 
ber 14,  1803. 

His  sons,  Antipas  and  Gideon  were  both 
Revolutionary  Soldiers.  The  second  son, 
Gideon,  was  born  in  Westboro,  March  9, 
1760,  and  was  evidently  named  after  his 
maternal  grandfather,  Gideon  Rice,  or 
"Geden"  as  he  was  nicknamed.  He  enlist- 
ed when  but  a  boy  of  fifteen  years,  six  days 
before  the  battle  of  Bunker  Hill,  in  Capt. 
Samuel  Wood's  Company,  Col.  Jonathan 
Ward's  Regiment,  and  this  Company  was 
engaged  with  the  British  during  that  day's 
struggle.  His  name  appears  each  year  and 
sometimes  several  times  each  year  during 
the  next  five  years.  A  very  commendable 
record  of  military  service.  After  the  War 
he  married  Hannah  Fletcher,  whose  an- 
cestry is  unknown  and  settled  down  in  Ches- 
terfield, N.  H.,  where  his  first  two  children 
were  born.  He  moved  from  that  town  to 
Guilford,  Vermont,  in  17S4  or  5,  and  in 
1796,  going  farther  up  the  Connecticut 
River,  he  picked  out  a  farm  overlooking  the 
Connecticut  River  Valley  and  from  which  .1 
fine  view  can  be  had  of  the  White  Moun- 
tains of  New  Hampshire.  A  beautiful  and 
practical  location  for  a  home  and  it  remain- 
ed the  "Old  Farm"  for  those  who  have  gone 
forth  and  their  descendants  who  live  in 
nearly  all  the  States  of  the  Union.  He  died 
there  June  3,  1815.  and  a  "S.  A.  R."  grave 
marker  was  placed  over  his  last  resting 
place  by  his  descendants  in  1912.  He  heid 
many  minor  civil  offices,  made  his  place  on- 
of  the  best  farms  in  town  and  died  loved 
and  respected. 

Levi,  his  second  child,  was  born  in  Ches- 
terfield, N.  H„  March  14.  17S3.  He  mar- 
ried Betsie  Silsby,  daughter  of  Mitchell 
Silsby,  in  November,  1806,  and  settled  down 
on  the  "Old  Farm."  where  he  lived  all  of  his 
life,  raised  up  a  family  of  eleven  children, 
took  care  of  his  mother  who  lived  to  b^ 
seventy-nine  years  of  age,  and  died  March 
23,  1863,  in  his  eighty  first  year. 

Roswell,  the  fifth  child,  born  August  26. 
1817,  married  lane  Blakeslee.  daughter  of 
John  and  Bathsheba  (Blake)  BlakesW 
February  2.   1841.     He  lived  on  the  "Old 


■13 


Farm,"  raised  up  a  family  of  seven,  took 
care  of  his  parents  until  their  death,  and  d'd 
not  sell  the  place  until  June,  1S67.  After 
the  death  of  his  wife  in  October  of  that 
year,  he  went  to  Colorado,  where  he  lived 
for  many  years ;  returning  East  in  his  old 
age,  he  died  in  Whitefield,  N.  H.,  in  his 
eightieth  year. 

Mitchell,  the  second  child,  was  born  on 
the  "Old  Farm,"  November  24,  1843,  mar- 
ried Laura  P.  Brooks,  daughter  of  Hon. 
Jonah  and  Sophronia  (Bradford)  Brooks, 
and  has  two  sons  mentioned  below. 

Charles  Henry  Bowker,  A.  B„  M.  D., 
physician,  Washington,  D.  C,  born  March 
20,  1870,  at  Lisbon,  N.  H.,  married  Eleanor 
Dyar  Thompson,  1903. 

Edgar  Marshall  Bowker,  LL.B.,  lawyer, 
Whitefield,  N.  H.,  born  April  18,  1S76,  at 
Lisbon,  N.  H.,  married  Marie  Halligan, 
1904.  They  have  two  children,  Bradford 
ai.d  Robert  Bowker.

HERALDRY. 


/.  V  Mrs.  Carroll  C.  Ennis. 


Heraldry  may  be  regarded  as  the  short- 
hand of  Ancient  History.  Without  a  know- 
ledge of  Heraldry,  certain  Historical  Inci- 
dents cannot  be  appreciated. 

For  the  pursuit  of  family  history  and 
study  of  architecture,  a  knowledge  of  Her- 
aldry is  indispensable,  while  to  the  antiquary 
and  archaeologist,  its  teachings  are  of  the 
utmost  value.  A  coat  of  arms,  badge,  or 
device  in  a  stained  or  painted  window,  01 
on  a  portrait,  often  indicates  the  date  with 
unerring  accuracy,  when  other  means  ot 
identity  have  long  passed  away.  Xo  one 
can  deny  the  influence  which  heraldry  has 
exercised  upon  the  manners  and  customs  oi 
European  nations,  having  been  (as  Mr 
Montague  puts  it)  "the  outward  sign  oi 
that  spirit  of  chivalry  whose  humanizing 
influence  conduced  so  rapidly  to  the  extinc- 
tion of  the  last  traces  of  barbarism,  and 
which  had  such  a  beneficial  effect  upon  thu 
warfare  of  the  time." 

It  is  to  be  regretted  that  a  subject  so 
cherished  by  our  forefathers,  and  of  so 
much  practical  importance  to  the  historian 
and  others,  should  have  been  till  quite  re- 
cently generally  neglected. 

It  is  true  that  Heraldry  has  in  the  past 
often  been  treated  with  absurdities  and 
petty  trifles,  so  as  to  bring  the  science  int.; 
disrepute,  but  that  time  has  nearly  passed, 
and  more  persons  each  year  give  serious  at- 
tention to  acquiring  some  knowledge  of  the 
true  science. 

The  calendaring  of  Records  and  docu- 
ments of  an  authentic  character  and  the 
opening  up  of  sources  of  information  for 
ages  past  practically  accessible  only  to  the 
specialist,  has  given  an  impetus  to  the  study 
of  family  history  and  genealogy,  which  has 
caused  great  attention  to  be  directed  to  the 
importance  of  Heraldry.  It  is  true  that 
Heraldry  as  a  science  belongs  entirely  to 
the  past,  yet  the  past  is  so  intimately  inter- 
woven with  all  that  interests  us  of  today, 
that  the  student  of  Heraldry  will  find  his 
labors  well  repaid.  •'Much  that  would 
otherwise  seem  dull  and  uninteresting  in 
the  records  of  the  pnst,  becomes  bright  and 
full  of  life  and  imagination,  when  Heraldry 
is  called  in  to  explain  the  mysteries  of  tra- 


dition and  display  the  realities  concealed 
beneath  the  garb  of  fiction." 

Though  Heraldry  to  some  untutored 
minds  may  appear  undeserving  of  serious 
attention,  its  study  is  advancing  steadily 
and  will  again  no  doubt  take  its  proper  place 
in  the  education  and  culture  of  English  peo- 
ple, and  others,  likewise  interested. 

Armorial  bearings  are  marks  of  honor, 
made  up  of  fixed  and  determined  colors  and 
figures,  either  hereditary  or  bestowed  by 
Sovereign  Princes  as  a  reward  for  military 
and  other  services  and  which  serve  to  de- 
note the  descent  and  alliances  of  the  bearer, 
or  to  distinguish  States,  Cities  and  Societies 
whether  civil  or  military. 

The  Science  has  been  traced  to  remote 
antiquity,  though  Historians  differ  as  to 
when  arms  came  into  regular  use. 

The  twelve  tribes  of  Israel  no  doubt  had 
certain  emblems  peculiar  to  each,  but  there 
is  a  broad  distinction  between  Tribal  and 
National  badges  and  symbols,  or  figures 
placed  upon  a  shield  or  helmet  of  warrior, 
for  the  sake  of  distinction,  or  those  devices 
adopted  by  families  as  the  exclusive  prop- 
erty of  themselves  and  their  posterity . 
Alexander  the  Great,  and  other  great  lead- 
ers bestowed  badges  upon  their  captains  and 
great  soldiers  which  it  was  forbidden  others 
to  assume. 

But  the  custom  with  regard  to  heraldic 
devices  properly  so-called  cannot  be  traced 
earlier  than  nth  century,  and  the  custom 
to  inherit  cannot  be  shown  until  the  12th  o" 
13th  centuries. 

Richard  1st  is  the  first  English  king 
known  to  have  adopted  an  heraldic  bearing. 

It  needs  no  argument  to  demonstrate  that 
in  the  days  of  a  general  ignorance  of  writ- 
ten language,  the  ensigns  of  Heraldry  were 
particularly  significant  and  found  a  re- 
sponse more  striking  than  even  words  could 
have  done. 

They  became  the  symbolic  language  of 
civilization. 

It  is  but  natural  that  when  a  man  had  dis- 
tinguished himself  in  the  field,  and  the  de- 
vice under  which  he  had  fought  had  be- 
come identified  with  the  warrior,  he  should 
be  regarded  as  having  a  proprietary  right 
to  use  it.  and  that  his  son  and  even  his  de- 
scendants might  feel  proud  to  bear  the  same 
device,  to  show  their  connection  with  the 
man  who  under  that  device  had  distinguish- 
ed  himself.

At  the  end  of  the  ioth  century  tourna- 
ments were  held  with  great  magnificence, 
and  this  period  probably  marks  the  intro- 
duction -oi  the  use  of  coats  of  arms. 

It  was  the  practice  when  knights  attended 
these  tournaments  to  blow  a  horn,  announc- 
ing their  arrival. 

This  was  answered  by  the  Herald,  who 
blazoned  or  described  aloud  the  arms  borne 
by  the  knight. 

Blazen  in  German  means  to  blow  a  horn, 
hence  arose  the  term  blazonry,  which  is 
describing  the  coats  of  arms  in  proper  terms 
according  to  established  rules.  The  French, 
however,  prefer  to  derive  the  name  blazon 
from  Celtic  origin — blazer — (to  shine  or 
blaze).  The  Herald's  visitations  are,  dur- 
ing the  period  they  cover,  the  most  compre- 
hensive of  all  the  repositories  of  genealogi- 
cal information. 

They  contain  the  pedigrees  of  the  landed 
proprietors  of  the  time,  entitled  to  bear 
arms,  and  were  compiled  by  a  commission 
under  the  Privy  Seal,  issued  to  the  two  Pro- 
vincial Kings  of  Arms,  authorizing  and 
commanding  each  of  them,  either  personally 
or  by  deputy  to  visit  the  whole  of  his  prov- 
ince as  often  as  he  should  think  fit,  to  gather 
before  him  all  manner  of  persons  who  used 
arms  or  were  styled  esquires  or  gentlemen, 
and  cause  those  thus  summoned  to  show 
by  what  authority  they  claimed  the  distinc- 
tion. 

The  officers  had  power  to  enter  all 
churches,  castles,  houses  and  other  places, 
to  view  therein  all  arms,  crests  and  other 
devices,  to  record  the  same  with  the  de- 
scents, marriages  and  issue  in  register 
books,  and  to  correct  and  reform  all  bear- 
ings unlawfully  usurped,  or  inaccurately 
adopted,  and  in  some  cases  to  pull  down  and 
destroy  the  same. 

These  visitations  ceased  towards  the  close 
of  the  17th  century.  The  originals  of  these 
records  with  few  exceptions  are  in  the 
College  of  Arms,  London,  England,  and  a 
few  in  the  British  Museum. 

I  give  as  my  authority  for  the  facts  con- 
tained in  this  article  William  A.  Copinger, 
Dean  of  the  Faculty  of  Law,  University  of 
Manchester,  England.

ACCESSIONS  TO  THE  LIBRARY 


By  the  Librarian. 


Ohio  Archaeological  and  Historical  Quar- 
terly, Museum  and  Library  Building,  Col- 
umbus, is  published  by  the  Ohio  State  So- 
ciety of  the  same  name.  April,  191 5,  con- 
tents :  The  Aaron  Burr  Conspiracv  in  the 
Ohio  Valley— by  Miss  Leslie  Henshaw  ;  The 
Evolution  of  Sandusky  County,  Basil  Meek  ; 
The  West  in  American  History,  John  Lee 
Webster;  Isaac  Newton  Walter,  Byron  R. 
Long;  The  First  Catholic  Church  in  Ohio, 
M.  B.  Archer,  and  Editorialana  by  E.  O. 
Randall, — a  fine  number. 

Missouri  State  Historical  Society  Collec- 
tions, Jefferson  Memorial,  St.  Louis,  Col- 
lections and  Proceedings.    This  Society  was 


organized  in  1866.  and  through  the  courtesy 
of  its  Librarian,  Miss  Stella  M.  Drumm  has 
presented  twenty-two  of  its  publications 
which  are  of  rare  historical  worth  and 
throw  much  light  upon  the  movements  of 
the  early  settlers  of  the  State,  and  elsewhere, 
St.  Louis  having  been  an  important  dis- 
tributing point  from  the  earliest  times.  The 
numbers  already  received  include  the  years 
1881,  1882,  1883,  1894,  1895,  '896,  1897. 
1898  and  1899;  1900,  1901,  1902,  1903,  1904, 
1905,  1906,  1908,  1909,  1910,  191 1,  1912, 
1913  and  1914,  and  it  is  hoped  that  the  in- 
tervening volumes  may  yet  be  secured  so 
as  to  complete  the  files. 

Illinois  State  Historical  Society,  Spring- 
field, Journals.  Fourteen  of  these  splendid 
numbers  have  already  arrived,  through  the 
kind  interest  of  the  Librarian  Mrs.  Jennie 
Palmer  Weber  and  of  the  Assistant  Libra- 
rian Miss  Georgia  L.  Osborne,  through 
whom  it  is  hoped  that  others  will  follow  ; 
April,  1909;  April,  1910;  Jan.,  1911;  April, 
July  and  Oct.,  1912;  Jan.,  April,  July  and 
Oct.,  1913  ;  Jan.,  April,  July  and  Oct.,  191  p 
In  the  Oct.,  1914  issue  is  noted  a  list  of 
Revolutionary  soldiers  buried  in  the  State 
of  Illinois  and  a  sketch  of  Moses  Long,  a 
soldier  of  the  Revolution  and  genealogy  of 
some  of  his  descendants,  together  with 
several  very  interesting  Centennial  celebra- 
tions. Would  that  every  State  of  the  Union 
would  locate  and  list  the  Revolutionary- 
soldiers  and  those  of  the  War  of  1812  who 
are  buried  within  their  borders. 

The  North  Carolina  Booklet,  published 
quarterly  by  the  Daughters  of  the  Revolu- 
tion of  the  State  of  North  Carolina,  Raleigh. 
Thanks  to  the  enthusiastic  editor,  Miss 
Mary  Hilliard  Hinton,  sixteen  of  these  very 
desirable  magazines  now  grace  our  shelves, 
four  complete  volumes,  July,  191 1  to  April, 
1915,  complete  and  already  the  quest  has 
begun  for  back  numbers  to  fill  up  the  files 
As  one  reads,  however,  the  wish  is  constant 
that  more  names  and  data  be  used  in  such 
articles,  so  thus  utilizing  the  history  of  the 
State  and  of  her  early  settlers  is  closely 
linked  with  that  of  the  entire  Country. 

Newport,  Rhode  Island  Historical  So- 
ciety has  presented  twenty-six  of  its  pub- 
lications, including  its  first  annual  report. 
1886,  and  Bulletins  numbered  2  to  15  in- 
clusive (April,  IQI2  to  Jan.,  191s),  through 
its  Librarian,  Miss  Edith  May  Tilley,  who 
most  generously  added  as  her  personal  gift 


a  set  of  Notes  and  Queries,  1S90,  published 
by  her  gifted  father  the  late  R.  H.  Tilley  ; 
and  seven  issues,  Jan.  and  April,  1K91,  (Jet., 
1X92,  Jan.,  April,  July  and  Oct,  1893  of  the 
Magazine  of  New  England  History,  as  this 
publication  was  renamed.  At  least  four  of 
the  Newport  Historical  Society  publica- 
tions of  1913-14,  have  special  genealogical 
value.  The  one  entitled  Items  of  Interest 
Concerning  Oliver  Hazzard  Perry,  and  the 
War  of  1812  among  other  data  gives  a  list 
of  the  Newport  men  who  served  with  Perry 
and  a  list  of  the  descendants  of  Perry  who 
were  yet  living  at  the  time  of  the  Centen- 
nial of  the  Battle  of  Lake  Erie.  Another 
deserving  of  notice  tells  of  the  Newport 
Historical  Society  in  its  earlier  davs.  Or- 
ganized in  1853,  very  valuable  archives 
pertaining  to  the  southern  part  of  the  State 
were  turned  over  to  it  at  once  by  the  Rhode 
Island  Historical  Society,  which  was  started 
in  1822,  and  had  a  large  membership  in 
Newport.  Newport  Cemeteries,  by  the  Hon. 
Robert  S.  Franklin  is  full  of  information, 
while  not  a  few  of  the  rest  would  almost 
appear  to  have  been  screened  to  avoid  men- 
tioning names  or  dates,  but  are  of  general 
interest. 

Among  the  pedigrees  in  the  New  Eng- 
land Magazine  and  in  Notes  and  Queries 
are  I'oolittle,  Casey,  Cable  or  Cabell.  Wil- 
liams, Hillhouse,  and  many  others. 

The  D.  A.  R.  Magazine,  Memorial  Con- 
tinental Hall,  Washington,  D.  C,  March 
and  April.  The  April  issue  is  of  more  than 
usual  genealogical  value  for  prospective 
membership  in  its  presentment  of  100  Birth 
and  Marriage  Records  from  New  Hamp- 
shire, and  a  Company  Roll  of  86  Connecti- 
cut men  under  Capt.  Elijah  Balckman,  1777 
— which  states  ages,  town  and  county  of 
birth,  etc. ;  besides  its  Genealogical  Depart- 
ment which  is  always  rich  in  such  data. 
The  historical  articles  and  Chapter  reports 
include  a  fine  amount  of  family  names,  data 
and  history. 

The  Maryland  Historical  Magazine, 
March,  Athenaem  Building,  Baltimore,  Md., 
is  full  of  instructive  details  in  the  diaries, 
log-books  and  accounts  published,  but  can- 
not secure  the  wide  interest  represented  by 
the  French  and  Indian  War  records,  Com- 
pany Rolls,  etc.,  Vestry  Proceedings  of 
S.  Ann"s  Parish,  and  Pedigrees  which  ap- 
pear in  the  preceding  issues.

For  the  information  of  our  subscribers 
we  desire  to  state  that  "The  Richardson 
Family,"  by  Miss  Lillian  A.  Norton,  printed 
in  the  July  Quarterly  was  original  matter 
and  had  not  been  published  before.  It  is 
the  intention  to  publish  only  original  mat- 
ter, so  far  as  possible,  in  this  magazine. 
When  material  is  taken  from  other  publi- 
cations due  credit  will  be  given.  Contribu- 
tors should  be  governed  accordingly. 

Contributors  are  again  advised  to  write 
plainly  on  one  side  of  the  paper  only ;  as 
the  committee  on  publication  cannot  guar- 
antee to  re-write  iranuscript  for  the  printer. 


THE  LIBRARY. 


The  National  Genealogical  Society's  li- 
brary is  growing  at  an  encouraging  rate. 
However,  members  and  others  are  '  iged 
to  be  always  on  the  lookout  for  publications 
or  books  to  be  donated  to  our  collection. 
Oftentimes  many  of  us  have  opportunities 
to  obtain  duplicate  copies  of  various  pub- 
lications without  cost.  When  such  cases 
occur  we  should  remember  that  these  dupli- 
cates may  be  just  what  the  library  needs.

NOTES  ON  THE  AMERICAN  REVO- 
LUTION. 


'v  Mrs.  E.  S.  Fisher. 


(Continued  from  January,  191 5,  issue.) 

nth  mo.,  17th  day,  1777 — I  was  at  Salem 
Quarterly  Meeting.  It  was  very  quiet, 
though  it  was  a  very  distressing  time  to 
me,  by  reason  of  the  troubles;  and  noise  of 
guns  and  wars  now  much  prevailed. 

23d — The  soldiers  lodged  very  common!) 
in  our  meeting-house  about  this  time,  yet 
we  were  not  much  disturbed,  only  with  the 
wounded  and  sick,  and  it  smelt  ugly.  See 
Amos  IY-ioth. 

27th — I  went  to  our  meeting,  and  before 
I  got  very  near,  I  heard  a  drum,  expecting 
the  meeting-house  and  town  full  of  soldiers. 
I  would  have  made  excuses  and  turned  "back 
if  I  durst,  especially  when  I  came  in  sight 
and  saw  so  vast  an  army  all  about  the 
meeting-house.  There  was  no  prospect,  at 
first,  of  having  a  meeting,  the  place  was  so 
crowded ;  but  in  a  little  time  they  all,  or 
the  best  part  of  them,  marched  upwards, 
and  we  were  favored  with  a  quiet  meeting. 
But  these  were  poor,  low  times  with  me ; 
all  hard — the  heavens  as  brass,  and  the 
earth  as  iron. 

1 2th  mo.,  4th  day — Our  meeting  was  very 
much  disturbed  by  some  men  who  came  to 
press  wagons.  It  is  said  they  took  six  or 
seven  away,  or  ordered  friends  to  go  to 
Mount  Holly  to  load,  etc. 

12th  mo.,  7th  day — Our  meeting  was  fav- 
ored with  quietude,  and  pretty  clear  of 
soldiers. 

2nd  mo.,  26th  day.  1778 — Very  dreadful 
prospects  as  to  the  outward  stripping  and 
driving  and  tearing  away  earthly  posses- 
sions. 

3d  mo.,  5th  day — Samuel  Hopkins,  from 
Philadelphia,  had  a  very  acceptable  service 
at  our  meeting.  Notwithstanding  the  gloomy 
prospect  as  to  the  outward,  we  were  favored 
with  sweet  quietude  and  comforted  to- 
gether without  any  interruption,  though  the 
meeting  day  before  at  that  place  was  much 
otherwise. 

6th  mo.,  4th  day — At  night  there  came 
between  thirty  and  forty  militia  men  and 
quartered  with  us  till  seventh-day  follow- 
ing. A  sad,  wicked  crew  they  were,  yet 
took  very  little  from  us. 


7th  day — I  went  to  Haddonfield  monthly 
meeting.  When  I  got  about  a  mile  from 
home  I  met  some  friends  coming  back  who 
told  several  of  us  that  the  English  army 
was  about  a  mile  on  the  road  and  coming 
this  way,  which  seemed  something  surpris- 
ing to  all  of  us,  and  a  pretty  close  trial  to 
us  to  leave  our  families  at  such  a  time. 
After  some  discourse  we  seemed  to  take 
courage ;  fear  went  off  and  we  all  went  on 
together.  The  report  being  so  straight  we 
could  not  expect  any  other  but  that  we 
should  go  immediately  amongst  them.  How- 
ever, we  had  not  gone  far  before  we  met 
some  soldiers,  but  they  were  not  English. 
They  behaved  very  civil  and  let  us  pass,  and 
we  passed  several  other  companies  of 
soldiers  but  had  no  interruption — had  a 
quiet,  good  meeting. 

1 8th  mo..  19th  and  20th  days — The  Brit- 
ish army  marched  up  from  Philadelphia 
through  the  Jersies.  Some  part  went  up 
through  Evesham  and  some  through 
Moorestown,  and  a  most  dismal  time  of 
trial  and  stripping  it  was  ;  they  plundering 
the  houses  and  taking  away  horses  and 
creatures  of  every  sort.  Some  families 
were  exceedingly  stripped  and  some  fared 
much  better  than  they  could  expect.  To  be 
particular  in  this  relation  would  be  too  ex- 
' tensive  a  work  for  me;  yet  this  much  I  re- 
mark, that  in  this  dismal  storm  or  shower 
there  was  but  few  lives  lost  down  this 
way ;  only  one  we  were  certain  of,  and  two 
houses  burned  down  in  Evesham.  In  this 
dreadful  time  we  were  favored,  for  they 
came  not  to  our  house,  though  they  were 
all  around  amongst  our  neighbors — except 
a  very  few  of  our  neighbors  escaped  their 
company. 

20th  day — They  were  at  Moorestown 
and  we  expected  they  would  come  every 
hour,  and  at  last  there  came  three ;  but  they 
were  deserters  and  behaved  well. 

7th  mo.,  1 2th  day — At  our  meeting 
Joshua  Evans  spoke  very  close  and  tight  to 
some  of  the  elderly  sort.  The  storm,  how- 
ever dreadful,  whilst  it  was  over  our  heads, 
seemed  to  have  little  good  effect  on  the 
people.  Now  the  armies  of  all  sorts  being 
gone  away  to  the  eastward,  markets  opened 
again  and  people  fell  on  to  trading  and 
struggling  after  the  treasures  of  the  earth. 

nth  mo.,  18th  day — Now  as  to  the  wars 
and  commotion  hereaway,  we  have  enjoyed 
much  quiet  a  considerable  time.     But  there 


was  an  alarm  of  another  kind,  as  much,  if 
not  more,  awful  to  some;  and  that  was  an 
uncommon  kind  of  worm  which  bred  in 
the  grain  of  the  wheat,  then  eat  out  and 
turn  to  flies  ;  and  they  were  so  far  multi- 
plied about  Salem  that  their  bread  was 
generally  much  hurt  with  it. 

The  end  of  the  Diary  concerning  the  Rev- 
olutionary War. 


THE  DISTINCTIVE  AMERICAN 
RACE. 


Much  has  been  written  as  to  what  con- 
stitutes an  "American."  Literally  speak- 
ing an  American  is  anyone  from  America, 
North  or  South,  and  of  course  means  from 
the  entire  western  hemisphere.  L5ut  actual- 
ly, when  one  is  called  an  "American"  in 
any  part  of  the  world  it  is  generally  meant 
that  he  is  from  the  United  States. 

So  the  word  American  has,  by  general 
usage,  come  to  mean  a  person  from  the 
United    States   of   North   America. 

Many  have  held  that  the  only  pure  Ameri- 
can is  the  North  American  Indian.  If  that 
were  true  there  would  be  no  American  race 
in  the  course  of  a  few  generations.  Those 
who  hold  to  this  view,  forget  that  races, 
like  families,  spring  up,  flourish  and  then 
disappear  in  the  course  of  time. 

The  white  man  has  been  in  America 
nearly  three  hundred  years.  The  pioneers 
of  this  race  must  have  been  made  of  strong 
and  determined  fibre  to  have  left  comforta- 
ble homes  in  the  old  country  and  traveled 
three  thousand  miles  over  troublesome  seas 
in  small,  dangerous,  sailing  vessels  to  an 
unknown  wilderness,  then  inhabited  by  wild 
men  and  beasts.  The  determination  and 
energy  shown  in  such  an  undertaking  by 
such  a  set  of  men  must  necessarily  have 
been  transmitted  to  their  descendants,  who 
had  to  fight  for  many  years  almost  for  an 
existence. 

That  this  immigration  did  develop  strong 
(mental  characteristics  there  can  be  but  lit- 
tle doubt.  That  it  developed  physical  char- 
acteristics that  can  be  shown  as  distinctive- 
ly "American,"  is  a  matter  which  Dr.  Ales 
Hrdlicka,  curator  of  the  Division  of  Physi- 


59 


cal  Anthropology,  United  States  National 
Museum,  is  now  trying  to  prove. 

Dr.  Hrdlicka,  in  an  interesting  article  in 
the  September  issue  of  the  D.  A.  R.  Maga- 
zine, says,  in  part : 

From  early  in  the  seventeenth  century, 
the  Temperate  zone  of  the  North  American 
continent  has  been  receiving  successive  con- 
tingents of  the  white  race,  which  settled  on 
the  available  land,  multiplied  and  spread, 
and  eventually,  formed  the  American  na- 
tion. These  contingents  were  derived  from 
Europeans  of  varying  physical  types,  rang- 
ing from  the  prevalently  tall,  blond,  blue- 
eyed  dolichocephalic  Northmen  to  the  most- 
ly dark-haired,  brown-eyed,  medium  tall 
and  brachycephalic  Kelts ;  and  according  to 
all  indications  these  newcomers  were  phy- 
sically and  especially  mentallv  above  the 
average  of  their  parent  groups.  The  pio- 
neers, whose  strongest  ideals  were  religious 
and  political  liberty,  and  even  those  com- 
monly classed  as  adventurers,  can  well  be 
assumed  to  have  been  men  with  a  surplus 
of  mental  power  and  physical  energy. 

These  men  and  the  women  who  accom- 
panied them  and  who  were  probablv  made 
of  equally  stern  rrfaterial,  encountered  in  a 
large  measure,  new  environments  and 
lived  a  new  life.  Thev  brought  up  their 
families  under  these  influences  and  their 
children  accommodated  themselves  even 
more  completely  to  the  conditions ;  they  be- 
came actual  Americans.  Then  followed  in- 
termarriage, both  within  and  without  the 
various  contingents,  and  the  original  hete- 
rogeneity slowly  gave  place  to  a  blend, 
which  constituted  the  body  of  the  rising 
nation. 

How  successful  this  new  blend  proved 
itself  to  be,  morally,  intellectually  and  oth- 
erwise, is  a  matter  of  history.  It  is  cer- 
tain that  there  was  no  loss  of  the  original 
endowments;  and  also  that  there  resulted, 
in  the  course  of  time,  a  considerable  ap- 
proach to  unification  of  all  those  charac- 
teristics of  mentality  and  behavior  which 
are  most  readily  subject  to  adaptation. 
lit  may  be  asserted  with  confidence  that 
so  far  as  outward  manifestations  are  con- 
cerned, the  descendants  of  the  old  Ameri- 
cans constitute  today  a  fairly  easily  separa- 
ble strain  of  white  people,  which  is  no 
longer  English,  or  Dutch,  or  French,  or 
Irish,  but  only  Americans. 


6o 


In  view  of  these  plain  and  highly  inter- 
esting facts  science  has  for  a  long  time 
been  confronted  with  the  pressing  question : 
has  there  also  taken  place  in  the  descend- 
ants of  the  old  Americans  a  physical  change 
which  produced,  or  tends  to  produce  a 
separate  subtype  of  the  white  people  ?  We 
know  that  changed  environment,  and  con- 
sequent changed  habits  of  life,  react  upon 
the  body,  and  also  that  the  latter  tends  to 
accommodate  itself  efficiently,  harmonious- 
ly and  permanently  to  all  the  enduring  in- 
fluences that  affect  it.  Has  the  American 
strain  been  long  enough  subject  to  the  new 
influences  to  establish  such  an  accommo- 
dation; and  if  so,  has  this  accommodation 
been  substantial  enough  to  result  in  per- 
ceptible modifications  of  the  physical  type 
of  the  people?  If  the  changes  have  taken 
place  or  are  taking  place,  are  they  uniform- 
ly in  the  direction  of  improvement — or  is 
there  any  degeneration?  Or  has  the  type 
perhaps  already  been  formed  and  passed 
its  zenith,  as  would  seem  to  be  indicated 
by  the  lowering  birth-rate,  a  rate  now 
hardly  sufficient  in  many  communities  to 
keep  up  the  numbers?  And  how  will  the 
type,  if  it  is  considered  to  exist,  be  affected 
by  the  growing  mixture  with  whites  of  re- 
cent immigration?'  Would  it  be  well  to  try 
to  keep  it  pure,  or  is  new  blood  desirable' 

It  is  well  known  that  such  nationali- 
ties as  the  French,  English,  German  and 
others  possess,  notwithstanding  their 
mixed  and  relatively  recent  origin,  d-is- 
tincitve  physical  features  by  which  in  a 
large  majority  of  cases  it  is  possible  to 
recognize  both  men  and  women  who  be- 
long to  them,  and  the  claim  is  often  made 
that  much  the  same  is  tme  in  relation  to 
the  Americans.  Writers  and  illustrators 
have  made  frequent  efforts  to  define  this 
American  type,  and  have  even  arrived  at 
certain  crystalized  conceptions,  such  as 
"Uncle  Sam,"  the  "American  girl,"  and 
the  American  young  man,  though  incon- 
sistently leaving  out  the  remaining  periods 
of  life.  The  Southerner  in  particular,  and 
the  Yankee  are  believed  to  have  character- 
istics of  their  own,  by  which  in  the  majori- 
ty of  cases  they  can  be  identified ;  yet  at 
the  same  time  they  are  supposed  to  differ 
so  that  any  one  of  wider  experience  can 
readily  tell  them  apart.     The  writers  who 


make  efforts  to  define  the  American  physi- 
cal type,  do  so  generally  without  going  in- 
to any  embarrassing  particulars ;  and  the 
artist  either  follows  certain  famous  indi- 
vidual types,  or  creates  abstract  concep- 
tions, or  propositions,  of  what  he  would 
have  as  Americans.  Suggestions  were  ad- 
vanced by  some  who  might  have  been  ex- 
pected to  know  better,  that  the  American 
type  is  gradually  approaching  that  of  the 
American  Indian ;  the  idea  being,  presum- 
ably, that  since  American  environment  pro- 
duced the  Indian,  it  would  in  due  time 
shape  all  peoples  to  the  same  mold.  Final- 
ly, certain  scientific  reports  on  the  physical 
changes  in  this  country  of  Jewish  and  Ital- 
ian children  assumed  to  show  that  the  type 
of  the  immigrant  changed  with  remarkable 
rapidity.  Were  this  true,  the  formation  of 
a  new,  more  homogeneous,  American  type 
ought  to  be  a  question  of  but  a  few  gen- 
erations, and  the  type  should  be  already 
well  matured  among  the  descendants  of 
the  oldest  American  families;  unfortunate- 
ly, however,  the  grandparents  and  parents 
of  the  supposedly  changed  children  were 
not  examined  nor  were  the  children  them- 
selves studied  at  different  periods  of  devel- 
opment, and  so  it  is  not  certain  whether 
the  differences  they  seemed  to  show  from 
the  general  type  of  their  nationality  or  race 
were  not  hereditary  and  thus  pre-Ameri- 
can. 

It  has  long  been  felt  that  the  above  un- 
certainties could  properly  be  met  in  but 
one  way  and  that  bv  direct  anthropolog- 
ical observations  on  normal  living  repre- 
sentatives of  the  oldest  American  families. 
With  the  view  of  applying  this  test,  ar- 
rangements were  made  in  the  fall  of  1912 
in  the  Anthropological  Laboratory  of  the 
U.  S.  National  Museum,  for  a  series 
of  investigations  which  should  extend  to  at 
ieast  400  individuals  possessing  the  proper 
qualifications,  and  since  that  date,  save  for 
interruptions  due  to  other  demands  on  the 
writer's  time,  the  work  has  been  slowly  pro- 
gressing. The  number  of  subjects,  i.  e., 
200  men  and  200  women,  is  regarded  as 
the  smallest  number  which  in  a  fairly  uni- 
form group  would  cover  all  the  important 
individual  variations  in  the  group  and  thus 
give  a  reasonably  clear  notion  of  the  type. 
To  make  certain  that  only  those  were  in- 


6i 


eluded  in  the  series  whose  families  have 
been  long  in  this  country  and  hence  long 
subject  to  the  action  of  the  American 
environment,  it  was  decided  to  take  only 
those  who  on  both  sides  were  at  least  three 
generations  Americans ;  in  other  words 
those  whose  parents  and  all  grandparents 
were  born  here.  As  to  locality,  Washing- 
ton was  recognized  as  the  most  suitable,  for 
among  those  settled  here,  as  well  as  among 
visitors,  there  are  Americans  from  all  parts 
of  the  country.  The  measurements  and 
tests,  finally,  were  to  be  sufficiently  thor- 
ough to  show  clearly  the  physical  type  of 
those  examined,  and  involve  only  a  mini- 
mum of  inconvenience  to  the  subject  and 
a  minimum  exposure  of  the  body.  To 
avoid  including  those  not  fully  developed 
and  the  decrepit,  the  age  limits  were  set 
at  from  24  to  60;  otherwise  there  would  be 
no  selection. 

It  was  anticipated  from  the  start  that 
the  study  would  be  prolonged,  but  the 
scarcity  of  duly  qualified  subjects  which 
soon  became  apparent  was  unexpected. 
Time  and  again  willing  friends  who 
thought  they  had  numerous  acquaint- 
ances who  could  well  qualify  for  the  tests 
came  disappointed  ;  the  majority  of  those 
approached  had  a  long  list  of  pure 
American  ancestors  on  one  side,  but  on 
the  other  there  was  a  foreign-born  grand- 
mother or  grandfather  or  perhaps  the  birth 
place  of  one  of  these  was  not  certain. 
When  the  supply  of  those  who  could  be  . 
reached  personally  or  through  friends  was 
exhausted,  an  appeal  was  made  to  the  local 
branches  of  patriotic  societies  and  much  aid 
was  secured,  yet  even  these  sources  did  not 
prove  sufficient.  As  a  total  result  of  the 
efforts  made  there  have  been  examined  121 
men  and  122  women,  including  representa- 
tives of  some  of  the  very  oldest  and  best 
families.  The  result  thus  far  obtained  are 
intensely  interesting;  but  there  are  still 
needed  80  men  and  as  many  women  to  com- 
plete the  work. 

As  will  be  seen,  Dr.  Hrdlicka's  work  when 
completed  will  only  show  the  characteris- 
tics which  have  been  developed  in  the  old 
American  stock,  and  will  be  very  valuable 
so  far  as  it  goes.  But  as  the  old  families  are 
constantly  intermarrying  with  descendants 
of  the  great  immigration  of  the  last  seventy 


years,  it  will  probably  be  another  hundred 
years  before  the  distinctive  American  is 
evolved. 


SPIES  OR  RANGERS. 


( Revolutionary    War.     Later   also   on    the 
Frontiers.) 

Contributed  by  Miss  Cora  C.  Curry. 
Duties. 

To  scour  the  country  every  day  for  a 
distance  of  8  or  10  miles  around  the  gar- 
rison, making  a  circuit  of  25  or  30  miles; 
and  accomplishing  their  task-  generally 
about  3vor  4  o'clock  in  the  afternoon. 

They  left  the  garrison  at  daylight — al- 
ways two  in  company — traveling  rapidly 
over  the  hills,  stopping  to  examine  more 
carefully  such  places  as  it  was  probable 
that  the  Indians  would  pass  over  in  making 
their  approach  to  the  settlements,  guided  in 
this  respect  by  the  direction  of  the  ridges 
or  the  water  courses. 

Their  circuit  was  over  the  hills,  on  the 
waters  of  the  rivers,  and  by  the  deserted 
farms  down  to  the  garrison. 

The  scouts  from  one  fort  or  stockade 
made  a  traverse  that  intersected  or  joined 
the  trail  of  the  next  garrison,  forming  a 
cordon  across  which  the  enemy  could 
rarelv  pass  without  their  signs  being  dis- 
covered. 

While  they  were  abroad  the  inhabitants 
at  work  in  their  fields,  or  traveling  between 
stations,  felt  a  degree  of  safety  that  they 
could  not  have  done  but  for  their  confi- 
dence in  the  sagacity  of  their  "spies."  They 
were  generally  men  in  the  prime  of  life,  of 
active,  powerful  frames  and  tried  courage. 
Their  dress  in  summer  was  similar  to  that 
worn  by  the  Indians.  Their  pay  was  5  shil- 
lings per  day  in  Ohio  in  1782  (84  cents). 

They  were  amenable  to  the  commanding 
officer  of  the  station,  but  under  the  direct 
control  of  Col.  ,  who  was  em- 
ployed by  the  United  States. 

They  had  signs  known  to  themselves  by 
which  they  recognized  a  "Ranger"  from 
an  Indian,  even  when  painted  like  one. 

Among  their  games  were  football, 
wrestling,  running,  shooting  at  a  mark,  etc., 
displaying  skill,  activity,   and   vast  muscu- 


62 


lar  endurance  and  powers.  They  took  the 
most  pleasure  however  in  those  showing 
their  wonderful  skill. 

There  were  two   or   three  at   each   gar- 
rison. 


OWINGS  FAMILY  OF  MARYLAND. 
By  Mrs.   Ida  M.   Shirk. 

The  earliest  trace  of  the  Owens  and  Ow- 
ings  in  Maryland  is  found  in  the  Land 
Records  at  Annapolis,  where  grants  of  laud 
are  recorded  to  Richard  Owens,  1654,  and 
John  Owens,  1670. 

Samuel  Owings,  whose  name  appears  in 
the  earliest  record  of  St.  Thomas'  Parish, 
was  the  son  of  Richard  and  Rachel  (Beale) 
Owings  and  was  born  April,  1702,  in  a 
little  house  part  stone  and  part  log,  two 
rooms  below  and  two  above,  located  in 
Green  Spring  Valley.  This  cottage  was-  oc- 
cupied from  1700  until  1780  by  successive 
generations  of  Owings,  the  house  being 
enlarged  from  time  to  time.  It  passed  in 
1870  into  the  hands  of  the  Ashland  Iron 
Co.  Samuel  Owings  married  January  1, 
1729,  Wrath  Randall,  a  daughter  of  Thomas 
and  Harriet  Randail.  Wrath  was  born 
January  i,  17 13,  and  was  married  on  her 
16th  birthday.  The  family  record  as  con- 
tained in  Wrath  Randall's  Bible  is  a  model 
of  neatness.  It  tells  not  only  the  date  but 
also  the  hour  and  day  of  the  week  when 
each  of  the  eleven  children  were  born.

Samuel  Owings  was  one  of  the  Commis- 
sioners (under  Act  of  Assembly,  1742)  to 
select  and  purchase  the  site  of  St.  Thomas' 
Church.  He  was  one  of  His  Majesty's 
justices  for  the  county.  He  died  April  6,

The  Partridge  Genealogy,  Descendants  of 
George  Partridge  of  Duxbury,  Massa- 
chusetts, by  George  Henry  Partridge,  of 
Minneapolis,  Minnesota,  privately  printed, 
1915.  Presented  by  the  author.  These 
records  were  originally  intended  to  include 
only  the  direct  line  of  the  compiler,  but  data 
of  the  Preston,  Connecticut  branch,  collect- 
ed by  Mr.  George  Homer  Partridge  while 
at  work  on  his  Genealogy  of  the  Partridge 
family  at  Medford,  Massachusetts,  and 
other  contributions  made  it  possible  to  ma- 
terially enlarge  the  scope  of  the  volume. 
Mr.  Partridge  has  given  much  information 
of  each  generation,  official  positions,  etc., 
and  has  prepared  an  excellent  chart.  The 
book  is  an  excellent  specimen  of  the  print- 
er's art  with  large  type,  tabulated  data, 
wide  spacing,  well  selected  paper.

and  nearly  fifty  full  page  illustrations — 
portraits,  old  homes,  samplers,  etc.  The 
coat-of-arms  shown  in  the  frontispiece  is 
an  unusually  good  example  of  the  heraldic 
art,  and  the  compilers  are  to  be  congratulat- 
ed upon  having  secured  the  services  of  so 
artistic  a  heraldic  draftsman.

bers. 

Proceedings  of  the  State  Literary  and 
Historical  Association  of  North  Carolina, 
15th    Annual    Session,   Raleigh,    December, 

1914.  This  is  of  more  general  interest  than 
is  usual  to  such  publications  because  of  the 
consideration  given  to  the  desired  publi- 
cation of  the  state  literature  and  the  move- 
ment to  secure  the  preparation  of  a  history 
of  the  literature  of  North  Carolina  as  well 
as  to  secure  the  writing  of  its  county  his- 
tories. 

North  Carolina  Manual,  compiled  and 
edited  by  R.  D.  \V.  Conner,  as  Secretary 
of  the  North  Carolina  Historical  Commis- 
sion, for  the  use  of  the  General  Assembly, 

1915,  is  a  compendium  of  the  state  infor- 
mation brought  together  from  many  differ- 
ent sources  and  includes  all  published  in 
previous  manuals  as  well  as  much  new 
matter. 

Collections  of  the  Minnesota  Historical 
Society  varying  in  size  from  475  to  892 
pages  of  concrete  information  ;  five  of  these 
volumes  have  been  sent  by  the  society  to 
the  library  of  the  National  Genealogical 
Society,  viz.:  Vol.  IV,  the  History  of  St. 
Paul  and  of  the  County  of  Ramsey,  Minne- 
sota, by  J.  Fletcher  Williams,  1876.  Vol. 
X,  Parts  1  and  2,  include  history  of  some,

1912,  Minnesota  Biographies,  1655-1912. 
compiled  by  Warren  Uphamn,  Secretary 
and  Librarian  and  Mrs.  Rose  Harteau  Dun- 
lap,  Assistant  Librarian.  These  biographies, 
necessarily  limited  to  a  few  lines  each,  in- 
clude the  date  and  place  of  birth,  when  at- 
tainable, the  date  of  settlement  in  Minne- 
sota, and  from  whence,  education,  business, 
official  services,  military  service,  etc.  Vol.

sire for  more  of  these  rich  stores  of  genea- 
logical lore. 

The    publications    of    the    Illinois   State

Historical  Society  are  of  exceeding  value. 
Among  their  latest  gifts  are:  Bulletin  Vol. 
I,  No.   1,   1905;  Journals,  Volumes  I,  and 

II  (1908-9  and  1909-10)  Volumes  V,  VI  and 
VII  having  been  sent  previously;  Volumes 

III  and  IV  are  greatly  desired  to  complete 
this  file,  April,  1908  to  Jan.  191 5,  inclusive. 
The  Transactions  of  this  society  for  1913,  are 
gratefully  acknowledged  as  are  also  two  ex- 
haustive compilations.  Vol.  V,  Kaskaskia 
Records,  1778-1790,  by  Clarence  Walworth 
Alvord,  known  also  as  Vol.  II,  Virginia 
Series,  1909,  and  Vol.  X,  the  critical  period, 
1763-1765,  by  Clarence  Walworth  Alvord 
and  Clarence  Edwin  Carter,  also  known  as 
Vol.  I,  British  Series,  1915.  These  publi- 
cations of  some  600  and  700  pages,  respec- 
tively, are  compiled  from  the  original  docu- 
ments, the  English  being  given  as  in  the 
original  and  the  French  with  translations 
as  well  as  the  original  form.  The  Missis- 
sippi Company,  composed  of  Virginia  gen- 
tlemen, was  the  oldest  of  the  land  compan- 
ies. The  Illinois  Company,  composed  of 
Philadelphians  and  others  of  that  locality ; 
the  Hazard  Company,  represented  by  Gen. 
Phineas  Lyman,  of  Connecticut ;  the  Wa- 
bash Company,  etc.,  were  all  active 
in  British  Illinois  between  1763-177S. 

Among  the  Maryland  publications  re- 
ceived are  : 

The  Baltimore  Book,  4th  edition,  and 
Baltimore,  the  Convention  City,  presented 
by  the  Librarian  of  the  City  of  Baltimore. 
Both  are  full  of  information  instructive 
even  to  Baltimorians.  Biennial  Report  of 
the  Commissioner  of  the  Land  Office  of  the 
State  of  Maryland,  Oct.,  1911-Sept,  1913  ; 
of  ^articular  value  as  it  contains  lists  of 
records  in  that  office  and  suggestions  as  to 
how  to  look  for  data. 

Report  of  the  State  Librarian  of  Mary- 
land, 1914.  contributed  by  Miss  Dorsey,  Li- 
brarian, History  of  Annapolis,  and  the 
Maryland  Manual  1913-1914,  presented  by 
•  the  Secretary  of  the  State  of  Maryland. 
State  Manuals  necessarily  are  storehouses 
of  State  data,  but  this  one  of  Maryland  is 
more  genealogical  in  its  character  than 
others.  Beginning  with  George  Calvert, 
First  Lord  Baltimore,  including  all  the 
Lords  Proprietary,  it  passes  to  a  list  of 
those  who  governed  Maryland  prior  to  1776, 
giving  data  of  movements,  relationships 
when  any,  and  order  of  succession.

tin of  the  State  Library  of  Indiana,  June, 
191 5.  Valuable  for  the  lists  of  gifts  and

interest. 

Old  Philadelphia  Families,  a  series  of 
genealogical  articles  compiled  by  Frank 
Willing  Leach,  appeared  in  the  Sunday  issue 
of  The  North  American,  Philadelphia,  for 
several  years.  Each  sketch  occupied  al- 
most an  entire  page  of  the  magazine  sec- 
tion and  excited  much  interest,  were  bound 
and  preserved  for  genealogical  reference 
by  the  Historical  Society  of  Pennsylvania 
and  other  libraries.  Portraits,  family  man- 
sions, coats-of-arms.  etc.,  appeared  as  il- 
lustrations. Oliver  Wendell  Holmes  said 
that  Philadelphia  was  the  genealogical  cen- 
ter of  the  earth,  and  these  sketches  suggest 
that  the  name  was  well  chosen,  as  the  de- 
scendants of  the  pioneers  scattered  from  or 
gathered  into  that  locality  from  almost 
everywhere.  The  North  American  Pub- 
lishing Co.  has  presented  to  the  National 
Genealogical  Library  seventy-eight  of  these 
issues,  December  3,  191 1  to  June  29,  1913, 
inclusive,  complete  with  the  exception  of 
four  issues,  March  24,  June  2,  August  iS,

Alice  Marple,  Assistant  Curator  of  the 
Historical  Department  of  Iowa,  191 4.  To 
facilitate  the  study  of  Iowa  literary  effort 
is  designed  first,  a  general  list  of  Iowa 
writings,  and  second,  a  chronological  list :  of 
the  first  the  Curator,  Mr.  Edgar  R.  Har- 
lan, says,  comprehensive  as  the  list  appears, 
presenting  many  times  more  information 
than  appears  anywhere  else,  it  is  incom- 
plete.

Dr.  J.  G.  B.  Bulloch.  This  publication  of 
the  American  Genetic  Association;  Wash- 
ington, D.  C,  contains  interesting  Eugenic 
information.  The  numbers  rebeived  of 
Vol.  VI, — 3,  4.  6,  S  and  10,  suggest  the 
desirability  of  the  missing  issues  for  the 
library  of'  the  N.  G.   S. 

The  Society  of  the  Sons  of  the  Revolu-

promising  that  "as  it  is  found  advisable 
other  issues  will  appear."  This  leaflet 
is  full  of  information  regarding  the  organi-

sented to  the  library  by  Miss  Norton,  among 
other  matters  announced  the  publication  of 
the  1915  Year  Book  of  the  Sons  of  the 
Revolution  in  California  under  the  name  of 


The  Spirit  of  Patriotism,  as  evidenced  by 
the  Revolutionary  and  Ancestral  Records 
of  the  Society,  Sons  of  the  Revolution  in 
the  State  of  California;  price  $7.50;  Orra 
Eugene  Monnette,  Editor ;  Leon  Le  Lanne 
French,  Assistant  Editor. 

A  copy  was  presented  to  the  library  of 
this  valuable  book  of  over  500  pages,  90 
of  which  are  devoted  to  an  alphabetical  in- 
dex of  all  names  therein.  From  the  open- 
ing "Why  a  Revolutionary  Patriotic  So- 
ciety Should  Secure  Recognition  and  Sup- 
port" to  the  index  of  "Family  Names  Un- 
known," which  closes  with  "Ursula — 210" 
(wife  of  Sylvanus  Durham, a  soldier  of  the 
Revolution.)  Each  line  is  "worth  while." 
Xo.  5,  of  Liberty  Bell,  October,  19 15,  sug- 
gests "to  the  genealogical  editors  of  the 
Boston  Transcript,  Buffalo  Courier,  Daily 
Eastern  Argus.  Deseret  Evening  News, 
Hartford  Weekly  Times,  New  York  Sun- 
day Herald,  Newark  News,  Norfolk  Hour. 
Times  Dispatch  and  such  other  publications 
as  carry  a  genealogical  column  or  page  that 
they  make  up  a  complete  index  of  every 
name  mentioned  in  their  publications  from 
the  first  issue  to  the  present  time.  Make 
the  index  so  complete  that  it  will  show  af- 
ter each  name,  the  date  of  issue  and  also 
the  query  or  note  number."  The  suggestion 
will  be  most  earnestly  endorsed,  by  all 
genealogists   everywhere.

Maryland  Records,  Colonial,  Revolu- 
tionary, County  and  Church;  Dr.  G.  M. 
Brumbaugh,  905  Massachusetts  Avenue,  N. 
W..  Washington,  D.  C,  $8.00,  is  issued. 
This  splendid  book  of  over  500  pages,  con- 
tains extensive  hitherto  unpublished  Mary- 
land Church  Records,  1693-1824;  a  Coun- 
ty map  of  Maryland  in  colors.  I//6;  Pro- 
vincial Census  of  1776  (All  Souls)  Fred- 
erick. Anne  Arundel  and  Prince  George's 
Counties;  Constables.  Census  of  Charles 
County,  1775-1778.  The  census  of  1776 
was  taken  under  authority  of  the  Conven- 
tion of  the  Colonies,  and  by  the  Commit- 
tee of  Observation  in  the  several  counties, 
and  is  more  complete  for  the  territory 
covered  than  is  the  "Heads  of  Families. 
Maryland,  1 790,"  which  it  antedates,  as  it 
gives  the  ages  and  names  of  both  heads 
of   families,   and  often   the   names   and  al- 


ways the  ages  of  all  children,  even  the 
babes,  hence  the  name  "All  Souls."  The 
compiler,  having  the  co-operation  of  the 
council,  and  of  the  library  committee  of 
the  Maryland  Historical  Society,  secured 
the  careful  photographing  of  important 
parts  of  the  "True  list  of  all  the  Souls." 
Other  censuses  are  included.  Among  the 
many  important  records  to  be  found  in  this 
publication  are:  A  poll  list  of  1917  names  of 
voters  in  the  Presidential  election  of  1796, 
Frederick  Co.,  Md. ;  Earliest  records  of 
marriages  and  births  of  All  Saints'  Parish, 
1727-1781,  and  Tombstone  inscriptions 
from  the  Old  Cemetery  of  the  same  parish 
in  Frederick,  Md. ;  Two  Muster  Rolls, 
Prince  George's  County,  French  War,  1799, 
giving  dates  of  births  of  soldiers;  fac- 
simile pages  from  the  Maryland  Federal 
Census  of  1790,  the  Census  of  1776,  etc., 
marriage  licenses  issued  at  Upper  Marie- 
borough,  Prince  George's  County,  1777- 
1800,  etc.  Altogether  a  book  that  every  one 
interested  in  Maryland  and  Pennsylvania 
as  well  as  genealogists  and  libraries  every- 
where will  find  invaluable.  A  triumph  of 
the  art  of  bookmaking,  printed  on  permanent 
uncoated  paper  with  the  blemishes  occur- 
ring in  the  old  and  yellow  documents  retain- 
ed to  bear  mute  witness  to  the  accuracy  of 
the  facsimiles.  Its  extensive  dictionary  in- 
dex gives  it  rare  value  for  reference  and  it 
will  prove  to  be  an  invaluable  source  of  in- 
formation for  Pa.  as  well  as  Md.  The  twenty 
mile  strip  of  what  formerly  was  Pa.  soil, 
and  its  inhabitants  was  included  in  Fred- 
erick Co..  which  then  comprised  all  of  Md. 
west  of  the  Counties  of  Baltimore.  Anne 
Arundel  and  Prince  George's,  Md.  Parish 
Records  were  the  compulsory  recording  of 
marriages,  births,  deaths,  etc.,  irrespective 
of  religious  affiliations  and  were  the  pub- 
lic records  kept  prior  to  the  formation  of 
the  Counties.  Although  these  preserved 
records  are  not  complete,  each  entry  has  an 
historical  bearing,  as  well  as  genealogical 
value,  upon  localities  and  families  through- 
out the  U.  S..  and  England.  The  edition 
is  limited  to  600,  and  the  plates  are  de- 
stroyed. It  had  an  unusually  large  advance 
sale  of  176  copies.

207.  Wanted,  Ancestry  of  Gertrude 
Montgomery,    b.    Oct.     17,     1741,    married 


We  notice  in  the  September  issue  of  the 
Register  of  the  Kentucky  State  Historical 
Society,  that  an  attempt  is  being  made  to 
re-establish  the  old  order  of  "The  Golden 
Horseshoe  of  Virginia."  This  order  was 
founded  in  17 14  by  the  Governor  of  Vir- 
ginia, Sir  Alexander  Spottswood,  and  in- 
cluded those  families  of  the  military  and 
magistrary  that  had  assisted  in  the  defense 
and  development  of  Virginia. 

"There  is  no  better  heritage  than  a  good 
name  that  a  father  can  bequeath  to  his 
children  ;  nor  is  there  in  a  family  any  richer 
heirloom  than  the  memory  of  a  noble  an- 
cestor."— James  Hamilton. 


MEETINGS  OF  THE  SOCIETY 
After  the  summer  intermission,  when  no 
meetings  were  held,  the  Society  resumed 
its  meetings  in  October.  The  first  session 
for  the  fall  was  held  at  the  residence  of 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  William  H.  Talbott,  in  Rock- 
ville,  Md.,  on  October  7.  A  goodly  num- 
ber was  in  attendance.  Routine  business 
was  transacted,  and  Dr.  Bulloch  read  a 
paper  on  the  influence  of  wars  in  the  main- 
tenance of  race  standards;  after  which  a 
bountiful  lunch  was  served  by  the  host 
and  hostess,  assisted  by  their  charming 
daughter. 

The  November  meeting  was  held  Novem- 
ber 6,  at  the  residence  of  Mrs.  Jessie  Porter 
Wood,  1 7 12  Euclid  street,  a  large  attend- 
ance being  present.  It  was  decided  to  ad- 
mit other  organizations  to  membership  in 
this  Society,  by  means  of  one  representa- 
tive. Officers  were  nominated  for  the  year 
1916,  and  minor  routine  business  was  trans- 
acted, after  which  Mrs.  Amos  G.  Draper 
delivered  a  very  interesting  account  of 
her  successful  search  for  an  ancestor  in 
New  Hampshire,  Massachusetts  and  Con- 
necticut. A  delightful  collation  was  serv- 
ed by  the  hostess. 

A  large  and  enthusiastic  meeting  was 
held  at  the  residence  of  Miss  Cora  C. 
Curry,  1020  Monroe  Street,  on  Dec.  4. 
The  Society's  library,  which  was  on  exhibi- 
tion for  the  first  time,  made  a  gratifying 
showing.  Officers  were  elected  for  the 
coming  year.     (List  shown  on  the  cover.)

EARLIEST  MISSOURI  RECORDS. 


Contributed  by  Mrs.  Ida  M.  Schaaf,  St. 
Marys,  Mo. 
The  following  records  are  from  the  old  church 
of  Ste.  Genevieve,  at  Ste.  Genevieve,  Mo.  Ste. 
Genevieve  was  founded  about  1735,  or  earlier,  by 
the  French  from  across  the  Mississippi  at  Fort 
Chartress  and  Kaskaskia.  There  was  no  church 
there  until  1759,  at  which  time  the  records  com- 
mence. The  first  church  was  of  log  and  was 
called  the  church  of  St.  Joachim.  1  he  Missis- 
sippi river  overflowed  so  badly  that  it  was  found 
necessary  to  move  the  town  to  a  higher  spot  which 
was  done  in  1785  and  1786,  after  an  unusually 
bad  overflow  of  the  river.  The  church  built  in 
the  new  town  was  called  the  church  of  Ste.  Gene- 
vieve. The  "first  pastor  was  Father  Hilaire  and 
after  him  Father  Gibault.  Father  Gibault  gave 
to  Clark  much  assistance  at  the  time  he  took 
Kaskaskia  and  was  instrumental  in  reconciling 
the  people  to  American  rule.  Among  those  buried 
in  the  church  were  Francois  Valle,  the  last  Com- 
mandant under  Spanish  rule,  his  wife  and  one 
of  their  childrenn,  who  were  buried  under  the 
Commandant's  pew.

HISTORY    .OF      THE      WIAT 
WYATT)   ARMS. 


(OR 


(With  Data   Connected   Therewith   Taken 
From    Original   Records.) 


By  Mrs.  Overton   JFoodard  Ennis. 

After  various  imprisonments,  Henry 
Wiat  of  Allington  Castle,  Kent  Co.,  Eng., 
was  liberated  by  Henry  VII  after  the  fall 
of  Richard  III,  and  raised  from  private 
gentleman  to  the  highest  honors  of  the 
Court  in   1495. 

He  was  made  "Knight  of  the  Bath,"  by 
Henry  VIII  on  the  day  of  his  coronation, 
July  23rd,  1509.  He  was  made  Master  of 
Jewels,  Treasurer  of  the  Chamber,  Knight 
Banneret  at  The  Battle  of  The  Spurs,  Privy 
Councillor,  and  at  last  chosen  as  one  of  the 
executors.  As  Knight  Marshall  attended 
that  Monarch  on  "The  Field  of  The  Cloth 
of  Gold." 

Henry  VIII  granted  Sr.  Henry  Wiat 
the  following  arms.  "Gules  on  a  fesse  or, 
between  three  boars  heads  couped,  sable. 
A  lion  passant  betwen  two  pheons  of  the 
3rd."  (See  Castles  and  Mansions  of  Wes- 
tern Sussex,  by  Messrs.  Elwes  and  Robin- 
son, p.  89.  ''Besides  Sir  Henry  Wiat's 
past  imprisonments,  he  had  been  put  divers 
times  in  tortures  with  barnacles,  in  witness 
thereof  he  caused  barnacles  to  be  wrought 
in  his  carpets." 

One  of  the  Carpets  of  Sir  Henry  Wiat 
was  in  the  possession  of  an  heir,  Francis 
Wiat  of  Quex,  Isle  of  Thanet,  in 
1735.  It  had  in  the  middle  the  ancient 
Arms,  which  are  three  boars'  heads  ppr, 
couped,  and  three  lionels  rampant  on  a 
bar,  with  barnacles  at  each  corner."  (See 
History  of  Boxley  Church,  Monuments  and 
Registers,  with  a  history  of  the  Wiat  fami- 
ly, by  John  Cave  Brown,  copied  from  the 
original  Mss ;  written  by  George  Wiat  fath- 
er of  Sir  Francis  Fyatt  (Colonial  Governor 
of  Va.),  and  his  brother.  Rev.  Hawte 
Wyatt.  his  Chaplain  at  the  old  Church  at 
Jamestown  Island.) 

With  the  exception  of  the  barnacles,  these 
same  arms  appear  on  Holbein's  portrait  of 
Sir  Thomas  Wiat  (the  elder)  son  and 
heir  of  Sir  Henry  Wiat,  at  present  to  be 
seen  in  the  National  Portrait  Gallery,  Lon- 
don, England.     This  portrait  is  said  to  be 


worth  $250,000.  The  arms  as  they  appear 
on  the  portrait  are  as  follows :  Gules,  with 
three  boars'  heads  couped,  (argent).  A 
fesse,  or  with  three  lionels  rampant.  There 
being  neither  crest  or  motto.  George  Wiat, 
the  great  grand  son  of  Sir.  Henry  Wriat, 
it  is  said  was  the  first  to  change  the  spell- 
ing of  the  name  to  Wyatt.  He  was  the 
genealogist  of  the  family,  his  Mss.  now  be- 
ing in  the  possession  of  a  -descendant,  Lord 
Romney. 

Allington  Castle  and  Boxley  with  their 
various  Manor  houses  and  estates  in  Kent 
Co.,  Eng.,  on  the  picturesque  Medway  riv- 
er, are  the  Ancestral  homes  of  this  family 
of  Wiats,  Boxley  still  being  occupied  by 
Wyatt  descendants. 

It  was  at  Allington  Castle  that  Sir.  Hen- 
ry Wiat  entertained  Henry  VIII  on  the 
occasion  of  Cardinal  Woolsey's  visit  there 
on  his  return  from  the  Continent.  Queen 
Elizabeth  frequently  sailed  down  the  Med- 
way in  her  barge  and  paid  a  visit  to  this 
grand  old  fortress  during  the  life  of  Sir 
Thomas  Wiat  (the  elder),  whose  son  and 
heir  Sir  Thomas  (the  Younger)  was  be- 
headed on  Tower  Hill  April  14th,  1554, 
for  leading  a  rebellion  against  Queen 
Mary ;  Elizabeth  being  implicated  with  him, 
his  confession  that  she  was  innocent,  saved 
her  neck  from  the  block.  History  states 
that  .Kent  Co.,  Eng.,  is  famous  for  three 
things:  "Its  castles,  its  beautiful  scenery 
and  the  Wiat  family.'  At  Boxley  Chapel 
are  buried  many  Wiats  of  this  distinguished 
family.  At  the  present  day  there  are  in 
this  Chapel  elaborate  Mural  monuments  to 
the  Wiats,  with  epitaphs  too  lengthy  to  give 
here.  On  the  north  side  of  the  chancel 
almost  under  the  choir  seats,  carved  in 
massive  stone,  are  the  arms  of  Sir  Henry 
Wiat  as  given  above,  as  also  the  arms  of 
others  of  the  family  connections. 

There  were  other  Wiats  in  England 
seemingly  not  of  this  family,  who  bore  dif- 
ferent arms,  who  also  had  descendants  in 
America  at  a  later  period. 

Sir.  Francis  Wyatt,  Colonial  Governor  of 
Virginia,  left  no  descendants  in  America, 
though  some  Historians  intimate  that  he 
did.  His  children  were  young  when  he 
lived  here,  and  returned  to  England  with 
him.  J.  Cave  Brown  (historian)  quoting 
from  the  Wiat  Mss.,  says  "Sr.  Francis 
Wyatt   had    only   two    sons    to   live   to   be 


grown.  The  oldest  of  these  was  Henry, 
who  married  Jane  Duke,  and  had  an  only 
daughter.  Frances,  who  became  the  wife 
of  Sr.  Thomas  Sylvard  (baronet).  The 
younger  son,  Edwin,  born  in  1629,  kept  up 
the  family  fame,  and  rose  to  distinction  in 
the  political  world.  In  1665  he  married 
Frances,  daughter  of  Thomas  Crispe,  of 
Quex,  Isle  of  Thanet.  He  died  in  1714, 
leaving-  his  estate  to  his  eldest  living  son, 
Francis,  who  had  a  younger  living  brother, 
Richard. 

Francis  died  without  issue,  and  left  his 
property  and  estates  to  his  brother  Rich- 
ard, who  also  leaving  no  child,  was  the  last 
of  trie  English  branch  of  the  Old  Kentish 
family.  From  him  the  Eoxley  and  other 
Wyatt  estates  passed  by  bequeath  to  his 
kinsman,  Robert  2nd,  Lord  Romney.  whose 
paternal  grand  mother,  Margaretta.  was 
granddaughter  of   Sir.   Francis  Wyatt. 

Rev.  Hawte  Wyatt.  younger  brother  of 
Sir  Francis  Wyatt,  left  numerous  descend- 
ants in  Virginia,  some  being  mariners  go- 
ing back  and  forth  to  England.  Some 
soelled  the  name  Wiatt  and  others  Wyatt. 
Among  them  was  a  grand  son  or  (great 
grand  son).  Tohn  Wvatt.  born  1684..  who 
married  Tennie  Pamplin  in  171 1,  and  had 
nine  children,  among  who  was  Richard, 
born  Mav  2th.  1720.  married  second  time. 
Amev  Chiles.  He  died  aged  8^?.  Thev  had 
among  others,  a  son  Richard,  born  Tanuarv 
ist.  176^,  who  married  Nancv  Ware,  and 
had  among  others,  a  son.  Colonel  Richard 
Ware  Wyatt.  who  married  Harriet  King 
Harris  an<-I  had  eleven  children  Al*o  a 
daughter,  Xancy  Wvatt  (sister  of  Richard 
Wvatt") .  "'ho  was  born  in  170  J  and  married 
Nancv  Ware  who  married  Colonel  An- 
t-^mv  New  (member  of  Congress  from 
Kentuckv  for  to  vears.)  He  died  in  Todd 
Countv,  Kv..  in  t8^. 

Richard  Wvatt  (father  of  Nancv  Wvatt 
New)  served  in  the  Rev.  He  and  all  hi* 
male  relatives  were  such  red  hot  rebels  to 
the  crown  that  thev  did  not  want  to  look 
noon  anvthing  connected  with  Fngland 
One  dav  he  tore  down  from  the  parlor  wall 
the  coat  of  arms  which  was  a  large  oil 
nainting  in  a  massive  brass  frame,  which 
h^d  b<=en  brought  over  from  England,  and 
"'ith  hi*  cword  cut  it  from  th"  frame  and 
threw  it  in  the  fire.  His  little  daughter. 
Nancv.   seeing  this  ran  in  and  rescued  it 


from  the  flames,  though  it  had  scorched, 
and  hid  it  under  the  eaves  of  the  attic. 
When  the  British  came  and  set  fire  to  the 
house  Nancy  thought  of  her  treasure,  and 
again  rescued  it  from  the  flames.  When 
she  married  Colonel  Anthony  New  in  af- 
ter years  she  took  the  old  relic  with  her  to 
Kentucky  to  his  home  "Dunheath,"  Todd 
County. 

In  June  of  1830,  Colonel  Richard  Ware 
Wyatt  visited  Kentucky  on  horseback,  stop- 
ping at  "Dunheath"  to  see  his  Aunt.  While 
there,  he  saw  the  old  coat  of  arms,  and 
made  a  sketch  of  it  in  his  diary  book  (which 
is  at  present  the  property  of  Miss  Marion 
Wyatt,  of  Huntington,  W.  Va.)  It  was 
much  battered  by  fire  and  age,  but  enough 
of  its  color  remained  to  distinguish  the  in- 
signia. 

In  a  letter  from  a  great,  great  grand 
daughter  of  Richard  and  Nancy  Wyatt 
written  in  191 5,  she  speaks  of  having  just 
visited  "Dunheath"  and  found  the  place 
well  preserved,  except  the  old  grave  yard 
which  was  in  great  dilapidation.  She 
spoke  of  her  "lovely  old  grandmother,  aged 
94.  with  her  oldest  living  child  70,  and  hus- 
band 83  years  of  age."  She  stated:  "grand 
mother's  memory  fails  if  asked  direct  ques- 
tions. My  Aunt  is  totally  deaf  and  lives 
in  books  and  her  rose  garden  and  seldom 
talks,  however  she  spoke  voluntarily  one 
morning  at  breakfast.  It  must  have  been  a 
psychological  moment,  as  it  was  the  first 
time  in  vears  she  had  talked  of  "old  times." 
She  said — "Dr.  Walter  New  had  no  chil- 
dren, anil  all  the  old  family  relics  which 
had  been  at  'Dunheath'  and  removed  to 
his  home  at  'New's  Landing.'  Miss.,  were 
left  to  his  niece.  Barbara  New  Cavaness. 
(a  daughter  of  William  New),  but  they  did 
her  very  little  good  as  her  home  burned 
down  and  every  thing  in  it  lost,  even  the 
beautiful  old  English  oil  painting  of  the 
Wyatt  Coat  of  Arms  which  hung  in  her 
library." 

It  is  fortunate  the  sketch  is  preserved  in 
the  Diarv  of  Richard  Ware  Wyatt.  for  the 
sake  of  his  grand  daughters,  the  writer  be- 
ine  one  of  these. 


REVOLUTIONARY  WIDOWS  IN  i860. 


Contributed  by  Mary  C   Ottrsler. 
The  following  is  a  list  of  the  surviving 


widows  (out  of  about  five  thousand  ad- 
mitted) who  were  pensioned  under  the  first 
act  that  was  passed  by  Congress,  viz:  July 
4th,  1836,  for  the  service  of  their  husbands 
in  the  Revolutionary  war.  To  enable  them 
to  a  pension  the  act  required  that  the  mar- 
riage should  have  taken  place  prior  to  the 
completion  of  their  husband's  services  in 
that  war.  It  is  remarkable  that  in  nearly 
all  of  them  they  applied  for  and  received 
their  pension  up  to  the  4th  of  March,  last, 
(1859)  the  date  of  the  last  return:  and 
still  more  so,  that  in  several  cases  they 
should  be  living  eighty-four  years  after 
their  marriage  and  have  enjoyed  their  coun- 
try's bounty  for  thirty-eight  years:

ANCESTRY   OF  MRS.   J.   G.   B.   BUL- 
LOCH (EUNICE  HELENA 
BAILEY.) 
Mrs.  J.  G.  B.  Bulloch  was  born  in  Kc- 
shaw  County,  South  Carolina,  at  the  resi- 


dence  of  her  father,  Charles  Bailey,  Esq., 
planter,  and  is  the  daughter  of  Charles 
Bailey  and  Ann  Cloud,  daughter  of  Joseph 
Cloud,  born  1770  in  South  Carolina,  who 
married  Martha  Nettles,  the  daughter  of 
Zachariah  Nettles,  an  early  settler  in  South 
Carolina,  who  married  Nancy  Schofield. 

Joseph  Cloud  was  the  son  of  William 
Cloud,  who  seems  to  have  gone  from  Penn- 
sylvania to  Virginia  and  then  to  South 
Carolina.  He  married  Alice  Harden  or 
Hardin,  who  probably'was  a  native  of  Vir- 
ginia, as  the  name  of  Hardin  is  found 
among  the  early  records  of  that  State.  The 
evidence  is  quite  clear  that  William  Cloud 
was  the  son  of  a  William  Cloud  of  Penn- 
sylvania, son  of  Jeremiah  Cloud,  died  1710, 
married  1685  Elizabeth  Bailey,  son  of  Wil- 
liam Cloud,  who  in  September  8  and  9,  re- 
ceived a  grant  of  500  acres  from  William 
Penn.  He  was  from  Calne  Wiltshire,  Eng- 
land, and  settled  in  Pennsylvania  about 
1680. 

Charles  Bailey  removed  from  Haddam, 
or  East  Hampton,  Connecticut,  to  South 
Carolina,  where  he  eventually  became  '1 
planter.  He  was  the  son  of  Isaac  Bailey, 
of  East  Hampton.  Connecticut,  who  was 
born  in  1763  and  baptized  in  the  Congre- 
gational Church  of  East  Hampton,  June  5. 
1768.  He  married  July  0.  1705.  Polly  Put- 
ton,  a  name  found  early  in  the  records  of 
Connecticut. 

Isaac  Bailey  was  the  son  of  another 
Isaac  Bailey,  who  was  burn  ( )ctober  28, 
1738,  and  who  died  in  1 77 r .    His  wife  was 

Elizabeth  ,  a  member  of  the 

Congregational  Church  of  East  Hampton 
as  late  as  September  5.  1770.  but  who  re- 
ceived a  letter  of  dismissal  in  18 10,  as  she 
probably  intended  to  remove  from  that  lo- 
cality. The  last  Isaac  Bailey  was  the  son 
of  Jonathan  Bailey,  born  August  16,  1700, 
who  married  June  22,  1721.  Alice  Smith, 
born  October  20,  1700,  who  was  the  daugh- 
ter of  Jonathan  Smith  and  Alice  Leek, 
married  Pecember  25,  1695.  Jonathan 
Smith  made  a  deed  to  his  son-in-law.  Jona- 
than Bailey.  He  was  the  son  of  Jonathan 
Smith  who  married  January  1,  166^-1664. 
Martha  Bushnell,  the  daughter  of  Peacon 
Francis  Bushnell.  born  1600,  who  arrived 
in  the  ship  Planter  with  his  wife.  Marie, 
settled  at  Boston,  was  admitted  an  inhabi- 
tant of  Salem.  1636,  and  later  removed  to 


Guilford,  where  he  was  as  early  as  1639, 
removed  to  Saybrook,  died  about  1681, 
aged  eighty-one  years.  He  was  the  son  oi 
Francis  Bushnell,  born  in  England  and  re- 
moved to  Guilford  as  early  as  1639.  He 
was  the  third  signer  of  the  Covenant  at 
Guilford.  He  died  1646.  The  name  of  his 
wife  was  Rebecca.  Jonathan  Smith  was 
the  youngest  son  of  Richard  and  Rebecca 
Smith,  who  were  of  Wetherfield,  Conn.,  as 
early  as  1646. 

We  find,  in  retracing  our  steps,  that 
Richard  Smith  had  besides  Jonathan,  who 
married  Martha  Bushnell,  Richard,  who 
was  first  at  Martha's  Vineyard,  then  of 
New  I  ondon,  and  finally  of  Wethersfield  ; 
Joseph,  and  two  daughters,  Mary  Smith, 
who  married  Matthew  Treat,  and  Abagail 
Smith,  who  married  John  Adams,  the  an- 
cestor of  Pr.  Arthur  Adams,  Professor  of 
English  at  Trinity  College,  Hartford,  Con- 
necticut, for  whom  see  his  sketch.  Rich- 
ard   Smith,    of    Wethersfield.    died    about 

1670.  His  wife's  name  was  Rebecca,  born 
about  1593. 

We  thus  see  a  lone  line  of  descent  from 
earlv  New  England  families,  and  will  now 
proceed  further  to  trace  the  ancestry  of 
Jonathan  Bailey,  who,  according  to  the  will, 
was  a  son  of  John  Bailey,  an  ensign  in  the 
train  band  in  Connecticut.  This  John  Bail- 
ey, Junior,  married,  not  as  has  been  sup- 
posed, the  daughter  of  John  Bates,  but  his 
adopted      daughter,      Elizabeth,      baptised 

1671.  She  was  a  daughter  of  Robert  Ge- 
rard and  Elizabeth  Beckwith.  Elizabeth 
Beckwith  was  born  about  1648:  she  first 
married  Robert  Gerard  and  secondly  John 
Bates,  who  died  January  15.  1718-19.  She 
was  the  daughter  of  Matthew  Beckwith, 
bom  1610.  probably  in  Yorkshire.  England. 
He  bought  land  of  William  Pratt,  of  Hart- 
ford, was  a  man  of  importance  in  New  Lon- 
don, and  was  accidentally  killed  by  a  fall. 
October  21,  1680,  being  then  seventy  years 
of  age. 

According  to  one  genealogy,  the  Beck- 
vviths  of  Connecticut  were  connected  to  the 
family  of  the  name  in  Virginia,  whose  il- 
lustrious lineage  can  be  traced  back  to  the 
Norman  Conquest  and  back  through  the 
nobility  to  Charlemagne.  While  there  ap- 
pears to  be  no  recorded  evidence  connecting 
them  with  the  A'irginia  Beckwiths,  the  au- 
thor of  the  history  of  the  Connecticut  family 


seems  to  consider  that  there  is  good  ground 
for  believing  that  Matthew  Beckwith  was 
of  the  ancient  line  of  Beckwith  of  Englai.d. 
To  go  back  to  Ensign  John  Bailey,  Jr.,  we 
find  him  to  be  the  oldest  son  of  John  Bailey, 
Senior,  who  held  several  official  positions 
in  Connecticut  and  was  one  of  the  twenty- 
eight  original  proprietors  of  Haddam. 

He  died  between  June  17  and  August  29. 
1696,  and  in  his  will  speaks  of  his  father 
having  left  a  sum  of  money  for  his  grand- 
son, John  Bailey,  to  buy  a  Bible,  hence 
we  are  enabled  to  go  back  to  the  father  of 
John  Bailey,  Sr.  Thus  step  by  step  we 
have  traced  the  descent  of  Eunice  Helena 
Bailey,*  who  was  married  at  the  residence 
of  her  brother,  Walter  A.  Bailey,  Esq..  by 
Rev.  Mr.  Pooser,  April  15,  1880.  to  Dr. 
J.    G.    B.    Bulloch,   of   Savannah.   Georgia. 

We  thus  see  that  her  lines  are  traced  10 
such  old  families  as  the  Baileys,  Beckwuhs. 
Gerards,  Smiths,  Bushnells  and  others  back 
to  John  Bailey,  Sr..  who  married  Lydia 
Backus,  daughter  of  Wm.  BackusT  and 
Mrs.  Anna  Bingham,  widow  of  Thomas 
Bingham,  whose  maiden  name  was  Anna 
Stenton.  born  Sheffield,  England.  She  died 
in  1670. 

On  November  3.  1777,  Ebenezer  Hall 
was  appointed  guardian  to  Isaac  Bailey,  a 
minor,  son  of  Isaac  Bailey,  late  of  Chatham, 
deceased,  Vol.  4.  b.  108.  Probate  record, 
Middletown,  Conn. 

The  will  of  Jonathan  Bailey,  of  Chat 
ham,  is  found  in  Vol.  3,  page  300.  dated 
July  21,  1775,  proved  May  8.  1776.  He 
speaks  of  a  wife,  Experience,  evidently  his 
second  wife,  after  son  Jonathan,  son  Re- 
compence,  of  his  daughter  Abegail  Hall,  of 
his  grandson  Isaac  Bailev,  to  whom  he  gives 
fifteen  acres  of  land,  o:  two  grand  daugh- 
ters. Eke  and  Esther  Bailey,  to  whom  he 
gives  each  a  feather  bed.  The  witnesses 
are  Beniamin  and  Timothv  Smith  and  Na- 
ih.m'el  Cone. 

It  seems  evident  that  Isaac,  son  of  lona-

vannah Morning  News,  April  15,  1880). 

t  William  Backus,  b.  England,  settled  1638  in 
Saybrook,  then  Windham  and  Norwich.  1660.  He 
married  1st  Sarah  Charles,  2nd  Mrs.  Ann  Bing- 
ham nee  Stenton.  See  pages  2-4  Bingham  Gene- 
alogy, 1808.  See  Records  of  Conn,  and  Bing-

J775.  when  Jonathan  made  his  will  and  his 
son  Isaac  got  his  share  of  the  estate.

lowing children  :

tees of  the  State  Library,  we  have  received 
a  complete  set  of  these  most  valuable  pub- 
lications. Each  volume  must  be  examined

logical and  historical  information  made 
available.

by  Charles  L.  Coon,  portraying  education 
as  it  existed  in  that  State.  The  informa-

considered  source  of  family  data.  Present-

ries, 12  Vols.,  completed,  edited  by  Geo.  Ed-

the  Hon.  Thomas  L.  Montgomery,  State  Li- 
brarian of  Pennsylvania,  who  also  presented 
among  other  publications,  Acts  and  proceed- 
ings of  the  Pennsylvania  Federation  of  His- 
torical Societies,  1st,  2d,  5th,  6th,  7th,  8th, 
9th  and  10th  Annual  Meetings.  It  is  asked 
that  a  special  effort  be  made  by  N.  G.  S. 
friends  to  procure  the  numbers  of  the  First 
and  Second  Series  of  the  Archives  not  enu- 
merated above  and  Nos.  3  and  4  of  the  Pro- 
ceedings, that  the  files  may  be  completed. 

Man  of  Mark  in  Maryland.  These  four 
splendid  vols,  presented  by  the  author,  B. 
F.  Johnson,  belong  to  Johnson's  Makers  of 
America  Series,  of  Biographies  of  the  Lead- 
ing Men  of  the  State,  and  are  a  useful  ad- 
dition to  the  library.  Necessarily  brief  the 
sketches  of  these  350  or  more  men  are  said 
to  cover  more  ground  than  any  other  bi- 
ographical work  has  been  able  to  do  in  the 
same  space :  the  data  was  collected  from  all 
of  the  original  colonies  and  from  across  the 
seas  in  various  lands.  The  author  certainly 
succeeded  in  making  his  work  of  distinct 
biographical  and  historic  merit. 

The  Autobiography  of  Asa  Biggs,  (1811- 
187S)  and  including  a  journey  from  North 
Carolina  to  New  York  in  1832,  was  written 
in  1865  for  his  children  by  Judge  Biggs. 
who  was  the  son  of  a  Baptist  minister.  Rev. 
Joseph  Biggs,  and  his  third  wife  Cloe  Biggs. 
Edited  and  presented  by  Mr.  R.  D.  W.  Con- 
nor. It  is  another  of  the  fine  publications  of 
the  N.  C.  Historical  Commission. 

A  History  of  the  German  Baptist  Breth- 
ren in  Europe  and  America,  by  Martin 
Grove  Brumbaugh,  1899,  is  not  a  new  book- 
but  is  one  that  should  be  more  widely  known 
as  a  source  of  authentic  information  brought 
together  as  the  result  of  years  of  collecting 
from  libraries  and  records  in  America  and 
Europe,    and   presented   in   concrete   form. 


The  busy  life  of  the  eminent  Governor  of 
Pennsylvania  perfected  the  natural  qualifi- 
cations of  the  author  of  this  admirable 
work.  As  student,  teacher,  college  presi- 
dent, minister  of  the  Brethren  Church, 
statesman  and  traveler,  he  specialized  in  his- 
tory, particularly  that  relating  to  his  own 
denomination,  and  is  a  well  known  authority 
in  such  matters. 

McAllister's  Family  Records,  by  J.  Gray 
McAllister.  A  sketch  of  Abraham  Addams 
McAllister,  "Prepared  by  the  conspiracy  and

which  will  answer  some  of  the  questions  our 
grandchildren  are  sure  to  ask,"  is  its  ex- 
planation. This  book  contains  information 
as  to  the  ancestors  and  descendants  of  Abra- 
ham Addams  McAllister,  and  of  Julia  Ellen 
( Stratton )  McAllister,  presented  by  Ad- 
dams Stratton  McAllister,  together  with  a 
sketch  of  himself  from  the  National  Cyclo- 
paedis  of  American  Biography,  which  he 
sent  by  way  of  a  personal  introduction.

addresses  of  Annual  Conference.  Des

lishers. The  Brethren  Publishing  House,  El- 
gin, Illinois.  The  German  Baptist  or  Church 
of  the  Brethren  formally  organized  in  1708, 
in  Schwarzenan,  Germany;  dispersed  to 
Holland  in  1719  and  to  America  1719-29; 
was  born  in  the  very  center  of  religious  per- 
secution and  of  Christian  sacrifice,  and  came 
to  America  "for  religious  freedom"  "to 
worship  God  after  the  dictates  of  their  own 
consciences." 

The  Washington  Papers  in  the  Library  of 
Congress,  These  four  important  volumes 
presented  through  Mrs.  Jessie  Porter  Wood 
are  a  calendar  of  the  correspondence  of 
George  Washington  as  Commander-in-Chief 
of  the  Continental  Army  with  the  officers 
thereof  and  has  a  most  comprehensive  in- 
dex. Prepared  from  the  original  manu- 
scripts in  the  Library  of  Congress  by  John 

C.  Fitzpatrick,  Division  of  Manuscripts.  It 
begins  with  "1775,  June  17  Washington,

Journal  of  American  History,  Vol.  1, 
complete,  presented  by  A.  B.  Dent.  The 
discontinuance  of  publication  of  this  Journal 
was  a  serious  loss  to  Americans.  Its  re- 
productions from  rare  prints  and  works  of 
art,  as  well  as  its  original  researches  in 
American  and  foreign  archives  and  private 
papers  are  sorely  missed.  Such  an  effort 
well  deserved  the  financial  support  of  a 
liberal  endowment,  it  was  too  great  an  ex- 
pense to  be  dependent  entirely  upon  a  sub- 
scription list.

EARLIEST  MISSOURI  RECORDS.

{Continued  from  page  3.) 

St.  Mary's,  Mo.,  April  8th,  1916. 
Editor,    National   Genealogical 

society     Quarterly, 

Washington,    D.    C. 
Dear  Sir: — ■ 

I  wish  to  make  a  few  corrections  in 
the  matter  printed  in  last  Quarterly  from  Ste 
Genevieve  church  records.  Three  of  the  errors  are 
my  own  due  to  the  very  faded  condition  of  the 
leuords.  Un  1st  page  of  Quarterly,  1st  column; 
1760,  Aug.  2U,  should  read  ".Louis  (not  Louise)  La- 
lande,  son  of  Etienne  Lalande  and  Jeanne  Perthius 
(not  Pertins)."  2nd  column:  In  both  records  wneie 
"Pertins"  occurs,  it  should  read  "Perthius."  On 
2nd  page  of  Quarterly,  2nd  column:  "Joseph  Valle, 
aged  20,  son  of  Francoise  Valle  and  Marianne  Bil- 
leron  (not  Billerson)."  On  3rd  page  of  Quarterly, 
1st  column:  "17S0,  Aug.  22nd,"  the  word  "Angois" 
Ls  intended  for  the  French  word  Anglais  mean- 
ing "English."  This  item  is  confused  with  an- 
other; the  name  Chappellier,  aged  45,  does  not 
belong  to  the  record  about  Patris  Flaming.  This 
name  is  really  meant  for  Patrick  Flemming,  "Eng- 
lishman. In  2nd  column,  "1781,  Sept.  30th,"  also 
occurs  the  word  Angois,  also  intended  for  Eng- 
lishman, Jacques  being  James  in  French.  In  the 
last  item  of  2nd  column,  the  name  Crauvin  should 
ba  Chauvin.  This  was  a  very  important  family  of 
royal  descent. 

I  cannot  account  for  the  error  of  Chappelltier  and 
Patris  Flaming;  your  printed  matter  is  a  copy  of 
my  notes.  Perhaps  a  page  was  missing  from  the 
record  book.  This  first  book  was  very  difficult, 
almost  impossible. 

Very  respectfully, 

IDA  M.    SCHAAF.

THE  STORY  OF  THE  STARS  AXD 

STRIPES. 

By  Mrs.  L.  C.  B.  Hill. 

The  American   flag  is  a  growth,   rather 

than  a  creation.     Its  history  can  be  traced 

back  to  the  twelfth  century,  or  nearly  600 

years  prior  to  the  first  "Flag  Day,"  June  14, 

During  the  first  crusade  in  1 195,  Pope 
Urban  II  assigned  to  all  of  the  Christian 
nations  as  standards  crosses  varying  in 
color  and  design,  emblematic  of  the  war- 
fare in  which  they  were  engaged.  To  the 
ScO'tch  troops  was  assigned  the  white  sa'- 
tire,  known  as  the  white  cross  of  St.  An- 
drew, on  a  blue  field.  The  British  used  a 
yellow  cross,  but  a  century  and  a  quarter 
later  they  adopted  a  red  cross  on  a  white 
field,  known  as  the  red  cross  of  St.  George. 

When  James  \'I  of  Scotland  ascended 
the  throne  of  England  as  James  I,  he  com- 
bined the  two  flags,  and  issued  a  proclama- 
tion requiring  all  ships  to  carry  the  new 
flag  at  their  main  masts.  At  the  same  timr 
the  vessels  of  south  Britain  .vere  to  carry 
at  their  foremasts  the  red  cross  of  St 
George  and  the  ships  of  north  Britain  to 
carry  the  white  cross  of  St.  Andrew. 

The  new  flag  was  known  as  "King's  Col- 
ors," the  "Union  Colors,"  or  the  "Great 
Union,"  and  later  as  the  "Union  Jack,"  and 
was  the  one  under  which  the  British  made 
all  their  permanent  settlements  in  America. 
It  was  the  flag  of  Great  Britain  only  by 
proclamation,  however;  not  until  1707  did 


2* 


Parliament  pass  an  act  definitely  uniting 
the  two  countries  and  their  flags.  In  the 
same  year  the  Government  issued  regula- 
tions requiring  the  Navy  to  use  what  was 
known  as  the  white  ensign ;  the  Naval  Re- 
serve, the  blue  ensign ;  and  the  Merchant 
Marine,  the  red  ensign.  Owing  to  the  fact 
that  the  British  merchant  vessels  were 
everywhere,  the  colonists  in  America  came 
to  look  upon  this  red  ensign  as  the  flag  of 
Great  Britain. 

The  people  in  the  New  England  colonies 
were  bitterly  opposed  to  the  cross  in  the 
flag.  In  1635  some  of  the  troops  in  Mas- 
sachusetts declined  to  march  under  this  flag 
and  the  military  commissioners  were  forced 
to  design  other  flags  for  their  troops  with 
the  cross  left  out.  The  design  they  adopted 
has  not  been  preserved.  In  1652  a  mint 
was  established  in  Boston.  Money  coined 
in  this  mint  had  the  pine-tree  stamped  on 
one  side  of  it.  The  pine-tree  design  was 
also  used  in  New  England  flags,  certainly 
by  1704  and  possibly  as  early  as  1635. 

At  the  outbreak  of  the  Revolution  the 
American  colonies  had  no  flag  common  to 
all  of  them.  In  many  cases  the  merchant 
marine  flag  of  England  was  used  with  the 
pine  tree  substituted  for  the  Union  Jack. 
Massachusetts  adopted  the  green  pine  tree 
on  a  white  field  with  the  motto:  "An  Ap- 
peal to  Heaven."  Some  of  the  Southern 
States  had  the  rattlesnake  flag  with  the 
motto  "Don't  Tread  on  Me"  on  a  white  or 
yellow  field.  This  flag  had  been  used  by 
South  Carolina  as  early  as  1764.  Benjamin 
Franklin  defended  the  rattlesnake  device  on 
the  ground  that  the  rattlesnake  is  found 
only  in  America  and  that  serpent  emblems 
were  considered  by  ancients  to  be  symbol^ 
of  wisdom. 

In  September,  1775,  there  was  dis- 
played in  the  South  what  is  by  many  be- 
lieved to  be  the  first  distinctively  American 
flag.  It  was  blue  with  a  white  crescent, 
and  matched  the  dress  of  the  troops,  who 
wore  caps  inscribed  "Liberty  or  Death." 

The  colonists  desired  to  adopt  a  common 
flag ;  but  they  had  not  yet  declared  inde- 
pendence and  were  not  at  first  seeking  in- 
dependence. They  took  the  British  flag, 
as  they  knew  it,  and  made  a  new  colonial 
flag  by  dividing  the  red  field  with  white 
stripes  into  thirteen  alternate  red  and  white 
stripes.  This  is  known  as  the  Cambridge 
flag,    because    it   was    first    unfurled   over 


Washington's  headquarters  at  Cambridge, 
Mass,  on  January  1,  1776.  It  complied  with 
the  law  of  1707  by  having  the  Union  Jack 
on  it ;  it  also  represented  the  thirteen  col- 
onies by  the  thirteen  stripes. 

As  the  colonists  gradually  became  con- 
verted to  the  idea  that  independence  from 
the  mother  country  was  necessarv,  they  be- 
gan to  modify  the  flag,  first  by  leaving  off 
the  Union  Jack  and  using  only  the  thirteen 
horizontal  stripes.  The  modified  flags  were, 
not  always  red  and  white,  but  regularly  con- 
sisted of  combinations  of  two  colors  selected 
from  red,  white,  blue,  and  yellow.  The  final 
modification  was  the  replacement  of  the 
Union  Jack  by  the  white  stars  on  a  blue 
field. 

The  stars  are  the  only  distinctive  feature 
of  the  American  flag.  The  charming  story 
which  credits  Betsy  Ross  with  making  the 
first  flag  of  stars  and  stripes  is  still  ac- 
cepted by  historians.  When  Washington 
suggested  the  six-pointed  star,  she  demon- 
strated the  ease  with  which  a  five-pointed 
star  could  be  made  by  folding  a  piece  of 
paper  and  producing  one  with  a  single  clip 
of  the  scissors.  Some  writers  are  of  the 
opinion  that  both  stars  and  stripes  in  the 
flag  were  derived  from  the  coat-of-arms  of 
the  Washington  family;  but  this  theory  is 
not  generally  held. 

The  official  adoption  of  our  first  flag  was 
in  1777.  On  June  14  of  that  year  the  Con- 
tinental Congress  passed  an  Act  providing 
that  "the  flag  of  the  thirteen  United  States 
be  thirteen  stripes,  alternate  red  and  white ; 
that  the  union  be  thirteen  stars,  white  on  a 
blue  field,  representing  a  new  constellation.'' 
The  thirteen  stars  were  arranged  in  a  circle 
to  symbolize  the  perpetuity  of  the  union  of 
the  States. 

Vermont  was  admitted  to  the  Union  in 
1791  and  Kentucky  in  1792.  It  was  felt 
that  these  two  new  States  ought  to  be  rec- 
ognized on  the  flag,  so  in  1794  Congress 
passed  an  act  making  the  flag  fifteen  stars 
and  fifteen  stripes. 

This  remained  the  flag  of  the  United 
States  throughout  the  War  of  18 12,  until 
there  were  twenty  States  in  the  Union.  In 
1816,  an  effort  was  again  made  to  modify 
the  flag  so  that  all  the  new  States  would 
be  represented  on  it.  To  be  continually  ad- 
ding stripes  would  make  the  flag  very 
awkward  in  shape  and  appearance,  so  after 
arguing  the  matter  for  two  years  Congress 


decided  to  return  to  the  original  thirteen 
stripes  and  one  star  for  each  State.  Con- 
gress has  never  determined  the  arrange- 
ment of  the  stars  nor  the  shape  and  pro- 
portions of  the  flag,  and  there  has  been 
great  variation,  especially  in  the  grouping 
of  the  stars.  There  are  still  many  who  be- 
lieve that  the  symbolic  circular  grouping 
of  stars  should  be  restored.

SIMON  PARKE,  OF  FRANKLIN,  PA., 

AND  DESCENDANTS. 

B\  Anna  E.  Parke  Warner. 


Editor's  Note. — Mrs.  Warner  completed  this  his- 
tory in  manuscript  ot  her  branch  of  the  Parke 
family  in  1M0.  The  Ms.,  while  quite  interesting 
to  the  immediate  family,  containing,  as  it  did. 
many  original  poems,  anecdotes,  etc.,  is  not  of 
enough  general  interest  and  genealogical  value  to 
be  published  in  these  columns  in  full;  consequently 
the  essential  parts  only  are  included  in  the  fol- 
lowing article.  At  the  time  this  was  written  Mrs. 
W.  did  not  know  that  the  family  was  descended 
from  Robert1  Parke,  who  came  in  1630.  Superior 
figures  0)  have  been  inserted  showing  the  genera- 
tion. The  lists  of  children  have  also  been  rear- 
ranged to  conform  more  nearly  to  other  genea- 
logical publications.  Nehemiah5  Parke's  ancestry 
was    William^,    William3.    Samuel2.    Robert1. 

Wishing  to  state  to  a  friend  the  ages  of 
my  sons,  and  not  being  able  to  do  so  from 
forget  fulness  and  having  no  family  record 
to  refer  to,  I  thought  it  was  high  time  for 
a  record  to  be  made  out. 

I  became  so  interested  in  the  work  that 
I  decided  to  gather  the  records  of  all  the 
families  of  the  descendants  of  grandfather, 
Simon  Parke,  Sr.,  and  write  up  a  complete 
genealogy,  if  possible.  None  of  the  first  in 
descent  are  living,  but  three  of  the  second, 
and  death  has  claimed  but  one  of  the  third 
in  descent  and  none  of  the  fourth  at  the 
present  date,  May,  1910. 

Lavvsville,  later  called  Franklin,  Susque- 
hanna County,  Pa.,  where  Simon  Parke,  Sr.. 
located  in  middle  life,  was,  a  few  years 
previous  to  his  settlement  there,  but  an  un- 
broken wilderness,  a  forest  inhabited  by- 
wild  beasts. 

Living  representatives  have  been  solicited 
for  records  and  also  to  furnish  biographi- 
cal sketches  and  historical  incidents  of  the 
families  whom  they  represent,  endeavoring 
to  gather  gems  of  thought  and  character, 
illumined  with  the  radiance  of  love  and 
godliness,  that  would  otherwise  be  over- 
looked. Many  facts  and  dates  have  been 
gathered  from  letters  yellow  with  age,  writ- 
ten before  the  time  of  envelopes  and  low 
rates    of    postage,    some    of    them    costing 


twenty-five  cents  and  others  eighteen  and 
one-half  cents,  and  later  ten  and  six  cents. 
Do  you  think  they  were  not  worth  it  ?  The 
large,  closely  written  pages,  filled  with  deep 
solicitude  and  tender  love  are  your  answer. 
And  now  by  request,  will  say  that  I  have 
been  unable  to  walk  for  ten  years  past,  from 
the  effects  of  rheumatism.  My  hands,  too 
much  drawn  out  of  shape  to  hold  a  needle 
or  do  any  work,  can  still  hold  a  pen  and  I 
write  by  the  hour.  My  general  health  is 
good  and  I  can  read  and  study  with  ease. 
Although  67,  am  not  too  old  to  learn.  Suf- 
fering but  little  pain  and  relieved  of  worldly 
care,  I  count  these  the  best  years  of  my 
life,  for  intellectual  and  spiritual  enjoy- 
ment, crowned  with  the  comforting  pres- 
ence of  my  beloved  Lord  and  Master  "who 
doeth  all  things  well."

BIOGRAPHICAL   SKETCH 
Of  Simon"  Parke,  Sr.,  and  wife. 

Simon"  Parke,  Sr.,  was  born  November 
10th,  1769,  in  Plainfield,  Connecticut,  and 
emigrated  in  his  youth  to  Kingston,  "Wy- 
oming Valley,  Pa.,  and  settled  on  land 
owned  by   his   father,   Xehemiah"  Parke. 

Mrs.  P.  S.  Wells  has  a  letter  written  by 
his  father,  Xehemiah"  Parke,  and  directed 
to  Simon"  Parke,  Sr.,  Plymouth,  Pa.,  giv- 
ing directions  about  the  land  referred  to 
above.  The  letter  does  not  state  where  the 
land  was  located.  Another  letter,  written 
by  Mrs.  Simon  Parke's  mother,  is  also  in 
Mrs.  Wells'  possession,  and  is  directed  to 
Mrs.  Peggy  Parke,  Wilkesbarre,  Pa.  The 
suggestion  is  that  he  may  have  lived  in  all 
three  of  the  towns  mentioned — Kingston, 
Plymouth,  and  Wilkesbarre — in  the  Wy- 
oming Valley,   Pa. 

Simon*  Parke  was  one  of  a  family  of 
fourteen  children,  and  was  married  to 
Margaret,  youngest  child  of  James  and 
Margaret  Covell,  April  16,  1797.  There 
were  twelve  children  in  the  Covell  family. 
The  following  is  the  letter  from  Simon 
Parke's   father : 

Plainfield,  Apr.  26th  1S03. 
I  have  sent  a  deed  by  William  to  you ; 
he  is  witness.  I  hear  a  witness  can  ac- 
knowledge a  deed  in  Pennsylvania.  If  it 
is  best  to  give  me  a  bond  for  a  deed  back 
to  me,  for  life  is  uncertain,  to  let  you  have 
this  land  with  what  I  have  given  you  is 
more  than  I  have  for  each  one ;  there  are 
a  good  many  of  you.  Commissioner 
allows  the  deed  to  be  good  you  may  take 
the  deed  to  me ;  you  shall  be  paid  for 
your  trouble.  I  was  appointed  Executor 
by  the  Court  of    Probate   on   that   Estate. 


I  think  you  have  the  appointment;  you 
have  certainly  got  the  order  selling  the 
land.  I  now  send  you  the  return  I  made 
to  the  Court.  When  sold  if  the  Commis- 
sioner wont  allow  the  title  to  be  good 
take  out  a  letter  of  Administration  there 
and  sell  the  land;  it  is  best  to  have  no 
more  trouble  with  it  You  have  the  ac- 
count of  the  debt  the  land  was  sold  to  pay 
and  I  shall  hold  one  I  have.  You  have 
a  right  to  one-third  of  the  land  on  that 
part  that  suits  you,  or  the  whole,  it  must 
be  sold  for  casb.  What  is  due  to  me  and 
my  part  is  the  money,  however.  I  can't 
think  but  they  will  allow  the  title  to  be 
good.  I  intended  to  have  gone  to  Susque- 
hanna this  Spring ;  I  am  not  well  enough  to 
stand  such  a  long  journey.  If  the  title 
is  good,  collect  the  money  of  Elisha  and 
Benedict  Saterlee,  but  not  otherwise. 
Don't  "sue  them  if  they  will  pay  without. 
If  the  deed  is  good  I  gave  to  the  Saterlees 
mine  is  good  also.  While  I  am  writing 
Douglas  tells  me  if  the  land  is  sold  again 
the  back  rent  must  be  paid  up;  if  so,  the 
interest  on  the  money  will  pay  the  rent; 
while  you  have  improved  the  land  and  I 
have  a  share  in  it,  too.  The  lease  I  gave 
to  Saterlee ;  if  you  have  not  got  it,  see  and 
get  it.  Abel  Dierce  hath  it.  Perhaps  William 
can  tell  you  what  I  don't  write. 

From  your   Father, 
To  Simon"  Parke.  Nehemiah°    Parke. 

Two  years  after  writing  this  letter  he 
died,  aged,  70,  The  following  is  a  letter 
from  Mrs.  Simon  Parke's  mother  and 
directed  to  Mrs.  Peggy  Parke,  Wilkes- 
barre, Pa. 

"In  the  year  1804  Simon"  Parke,  Sr., 
moved  his  family  and  effects  on  a  flat 
boat  up  the  Susquehanna  river"  to  Wind- 
sor, X.  Y."  At  this  time  he  had  three 
sons,   Samuel',  Covell'  and   Nehmiah7. 

In  January,  1809,  he  moved  to  Laws- 
ville,  afterward  called  Franklin,  Susque- 
hanna County,  Pennsylvania.  A  daugh- 
ter, Charlotte7,  was  born  to  them  Jan.  18, 
1S09,  and  Samuel7,  their  eldest  son,  died 
March  23  of  the  same  year,  aged  eleven. 

Another  son,  Simon7  Parke  Jr.,  was 
born  March  31,  181 1,  and  another  daugh- 
ter, Julia  Ann7,  May  18,  1813,  making  the 
number  of  children  born  to  them  six. 
The  youngest  daughter,  Julia  Ann,  never 
married  but     remained  at     home  a   com-

panion  and  comfort  to  her  parents  in 
their  declining  years.  For  several  years 
before  her  death  she  was  a  great  sufferer 
from  asthma.  The  remaining  three  sons 
and  one  daughter  married,  having  homes 
of  their  own,  blessed  with  a  family  altar, 
around  which  their  children  grew  up  to 
be  men  and  women  of  God. 

Simon"  Parke  was  a  farmer,  but  soon 
after  being  settled  in  Franklin  he  built  a 
saw  mill  on  Wiley  Creek,  not  far  from  his 
farm.  This  he  kept  running  several  years, 
but  like  the  other  mills  at  that  time  it 
served  the  people  better  than  its  owner, 
and  finally  was  left  to  decay. 

I  have  a  long  list,  yellow  with  age  and 
ink  faded,  of  Church  membership,  found 
among  my  father's  papers.  It  is  record- 
ed that  on  Sept.  30,  1820,  Simon  Parke, 
Sr.,  united  with  the  Union  Congrega- 
tional Church.  He  was  a  man  of  quiet 
mien  and  sterling  worth,  a  faithful  and 
consistent  member  of  the  Church,  ever 
sustaining  family  worship,  by  daily  read- 
ing the  Word  and  offering  prayer.  His 
faith  was  firm  and  his  hopes  grew  bright- 
er as  he  neared  the  end  of  a  long  and  use- 
ful life,  aged  82.  "Godliness  is  profitable 
for  all  tilings  having  promise  of  the  life 
which  now  is,  and  of  that  which  is  to 
come." 

CHILDHOOD  REMINISCENCE 

I  was  a  child  but  eight  years  old  when 
Grandfather  Parke  died  but  I  well  re- 
member his  pleasant  face  and  his  kindly 
smile  as  he  sat  in  his  large  arm  chair  by 
the  north  window.  He  always  had  a 
cheerful  greeting  for  his  grandchildren. 
My  brother  and  myself  were  accustomed 
to  go  over,  every  day,  and  carry  the  wood, 
filling  a  large  wood  box  high  and  heap- 
ing full.  One  day  he  gave  me  a  gentle 
reproof  for  carrying  too  large  an  armful 
for  so  small  a  child.  The  next  time  I 
came  into  the  room,  saucy  child  that  I 
was,  with  but  a  single  stick  of  kindling 
wood  in  my  arms,  and  thought  it  very 
cute,  not  appreciating  the  dear  man's  in- 
terest in  my  welfare. 

His  health  was  too  much  impaired, 
before  my  remembrance,  to  be  actively 
engaged  in  work ;  but  usually  sat  reading 
by  his  north  window  overlooking  Ceme- 
tery Hill  and  his  son  Nehmiah's  home, 
the  latter  but  a  short  distance  away. 
He  was  able  to   walk  that   far  if  a  chair 


was  brought  to  rest  in  when  half  way 
there. 

Memory  recalls  his  bent  form  and  fee- 
ble step,  leaning  on  his  cane  coming  slow- 
ly toward  our  house.  Some  of  us,  usually  my 
brother  and  myself,  would  run  to  meet  him 
with  a  chair;  and  as  he  sat  resting  would 
have  a  pleasant  talk  together.  What  a 
pleasure  it  was  to  see  Grandpa  coming. 

He  was  able  to  attend  church  within  my 
remembrance,  assisted  into  and  out  of 
his  buggy  by  his  son  Nehemiah,  who  was 
ever  his  willing  and  attentive  helper.  I 
can  see  him  now,  coming  up  the  aisle,  so 
slowly  that  it  seemed  he  scarcely  moved, 
shoving  his  feet  but  a  few  inches  at  a  time, 
rather  than  lifting  them.  His  pew  was 
about  half  way  to  the  pulpit  and  ahead  of 
ours,  and  as  he  slowly  took  his  seat,  and 
reverently  bowed  his  head,  whitened  with 
age  and  nearly  bald,  it  seemed  a  peaceful 
benediction  from  Heaven  rested  upon  him. 
His  daughter,  Julia  Ann,  sat  back  in  the 
corner,  and  when  it  was  at  all  cold  had  her 
little  tin  foot  stove  with  coals  in  it,  at  her 
feet,  for  her  health  was  very  delicate. 
Grandpa  sat  by  the  pew  door  closed  with  a 
wooden  button,  as  all  the  pew  doors  in  the 
Church  were.  It  seemed  a  good  thing  to 
have  doors  for  babies  and  children  of  all 
ages  were  taken  to  church  and  being 
shut  in,  a  little  more  freedom  to  move  about 
was  given  them  without  disturbing  anyone. 

For  the  evening  services  the  church  was 
lighted  with  tallow  candles  placed  in  tin 
re  Hectors  and  hung  up  in  'different  parts 
of  the  church.  Two  or  three  candles  in 
candle  sticks  usually  illumined  the  pulpit. 
There  was  only  one  in  the  "entry"  and 
that  scarcely  gave  enough  light  for-  the 
young  men  to  pick  out  the  girl  they  wish- 
ed to  "see  home." 

The  evening  meetings  were  ".given  out" 
to  "commence  at  early  candle  lighting." 
My  grandmother  died  the  vear  before  I 
was  born ;  but  I  have  heard  her  spoken 
of  as  an  affectionate  wife  and  mother  and 
a   devoted  christian.

spelled  with  an  "e"  Parke,  until  185 1.  When 
the  death  of  Simon"  Parke,  Sr.,  was  re- 
corded the  "e"  was  dropped  and  written 
Park.  All  the  descendants  wrote  it  thus ; 
but  the  name  is  rightly  Parke.

hold affairs  to  make  sure*  of  my  efficencv  to 
manage  a  home  of  my  own.  I  graduated 
in  the  science  of  dishwashing  before  I  was 
sixteen.  During  this  last  year,  however, 
I  took  a  post-graduate  course.  My  marriage 
took  place  five  days  after  my  twenty-first 
birthday,  and  my  father  remarked:  'I  dont 
think  you'  prize  your  freedom,  getting  tied 
up  so  soon  after  gaining  it;  but  if  George 
is  as  faithful  in  business  as  he  has  been  in 
courting;  his  wife,  he  will  make  a  success  of 
life.'  George  Barrington  Warner  was  the 
man  of  my  heart,  and  I  the  woman  of  his 
choice.  Forty-six  years  of  married  life  have 
brought  their  joys  and  sorrows,  their  toil, 
trial  and  temptations.  But  He  who  guides 
and  guards  has  wrought  deliverance  and 
blessing  out  of  them  all.  George  has  proven 
his  faithfulness  to  business  and  has  won 
success."

Plymouth,  settler  of  1632-40;  John  Moses 
of  Windsor  and  Simsbury,  Conn.,  settler

mouth, N.  H.,  settler  prior  to  1640  a 
Genealogical  Record  of  some  of  their  de- 
scendants, presented  by  the  author,  Zebina 
Moses.  The  attention  of  Mr.  Moses  having 
been  directed  to  the  approaching  decay  and 
obliteration  of  the  early  colonial  records, 
he  has  gathered  every  available  item  throw- 
ing light  on  the  first  and  second  generation 
of  the  Moses  name  in  New  England,  and 
preserved  the  fruits  of  his  labors  in  book 
form  where  all  of  Xew  England  descent 
may  trace  their  lineage  to  the  first  settlers 
from  the  last  four  generations,  in  this  270 
pages  of  Moses  data,  compiled  in  most  con- 
venient form. 

Thompson  lineage,  with  members  of

\\  illiam  Baker  Thompson.  Col.  Thompson 
modestly  says  that  this  is  not  intended  as  a 
lineage  of  all  the  Thompsons  in  the  United 
States  nor  even  of  all  of  the  descendants  of 
Anthony  Thompson,  an  English  Puritan 
who  landed  at  Boston,  June  26,  1637,  but 
it  does  bring  clown  the  direct  line  of  descent 
and  descendants  of  his  grandsons,  Samuel 
and  Amos  Thompson,  settlers  in  Dutchess 
County,  X.  Y.,  in  1750,  together  with  the 
allied  families  of  Baker,  Harris  and 
Wheeler.  Edward  Baker,  emigrant  to 
Mass.,  in  1630;  Thomas  Harris,  emigrant, 
about  [630,  and  John  Wheeler,  emigrant, 
from  Salisbury,  Eng.,  to  Mass.,  prior  to 
1639.  A  most  helpful  compilation  for  the 
Thompsons  and  their  kin.

Horton  Pierce,  with  a  review  of  the  law 
involved  in  the  recovery  of  the  Harlem 
Lands,  by  William  Pennington  Toler  and 
Harmon  De  Pau  Xutting,  presented  by  Mrs. 
George  Marsh.  This  story  of  the  efforts 
to  restore  to  the  descendants  of  the  in- 
corporators the  undivided  lands  given  to 
their  forefathers  and  held  by  those  fore- 
fathers through  pioneer  perils  and  hard- 
ships, some  seventy  years  after  the  last  re- 
corded meeting  of  Harlem,  necessarily  in- 
cludes much  of  genealogical  importance,  as 
it  was  found  that  there  were  between  20,- 
000  and  40,000  heirs  or  descendants  of  the 
23  original  patentees  of  the  Town  of  New

The  Princess  Pocahontas,  by  Mittie 
Owen  McDavid,  is  a  simple  story  of 
Pocahontas,  the  lovable  young  girl,  her 
brief  but  remarkable  career,  and  her  relation 
to  the  English  colonists  as  seen  through  the 
eyes  of  one  of  her  descendants  in  the  light 
of  family  traditions  as  well  as  of  history  as 
it  has  been  written.  This  study  of  Virginia 
records  and  of  family  papers  is  a  delightful 
as  well  as  instructive  compilation.

HERBERT   KAUFMAN   ON  ANCESTORS. 

Mr.  Herbert  Kaufman  has  written  one  of  his 
characteristic  articles  on  ancestors.  It  contains  so 
much  truth  that  we  republish  it  here  by  his  per- 
mission. We  like  it  all.  except  the  title,  which 
was  "To  a  Snob."  We  do  not  believe  that  those 
who  feel  a  little  pride  in  having  honorable  an- 
cestors are  snobs. 

(Krom  Herbert  Kauf.nan'8  Weekly  Page.    Copyright

Why  talk  so  much  about  your  ancestors  ? 
It's  a  very  ordinary  experience  to  own  a 
string  of  forebears.  You  seem  to  forget 
that  everybody  has  them.  And  averaging 
up  the  lots,  one  set  is  probably  about  as 
good  as  the  next. 

Here  we  find  an  outfit  of  "rich  men, 
poor  men,  beggar  men,  thieves ;" — there  a 
group  of  '"doctors,  merchants,  lawyers 
chiefs."  Don't  bother  to  produce  a  special 
genealogical  chart,  the  old  nursery  rhyme 
is  apt  to  prove  a  far  more  accurate  one. 

All  folks  experience  their  ups  and  downs  : 
The  tides  of  success  and  failure  ebb  and 
flow  through  the  centuries :  fortunes  rise 
and  fall  and  mount  again . 

A  certain  number  of  shady  and  rotten 
branches  are  to  be  found  on  each  family 
tree.  Time  prunes  and  grafts  them  back 
to  vitality.  The  process  is  ceaseless  and  un- 
varying— the   fruitage  utterly  unreliable. 

Weaklings,  poltrooms,  cringers,  wantons 
and  wastrels  are  behind  and  before  you. 

There  were  undesirable  progenitors 
among  your  grandparents  and  there  will 
be  r  >  many  among  your  offspring. 

future  collaterals  will  wait  upon  the  un- 
born progeny  of  your  domestics,  nor  will 
they  be  the  first  of  the  lineage  to  serve  in 
humble  capacities. 

Even  kings  have  closetsful  of  such  skele- 
tons. The  Obrenovitches  were  formerly 
swine-herds  and  the  Hapsburgs  were  the 
most  prominent  butchers  of  their  day. 

Of  whatever  present  social  position,  the 
Smiths,  the  Taylors,  the  Wrights,  the  Car- 
penters, the  Chapmans,  the  Millers,  all 
sprang  from  folk  who  followed  the  occupa- 
tions indicated  by  their  names.  NomeTicra- 
ture  invariably  discloses  origin. 

The  various  tides  of  immigration  which 
populated  this  continent  chiefly  brought 
peasants  and  artisans — doers  anddarers — 
builders,  nation-makers. 

America   was   settled  by   farmers,   petty 


tradesmen,    plantation    hands    and    tickets 
o'leave. 

They  were  forced  to  make  good ;  without 
resources,  there  was  no  alternative  but  the 
development  of  the  resources  about  them. 

The  Knickerbockers  were  mainly  shop- 
men, cobblers,  chandlers,  furriers  and 
peddlers — decent,  earnest  citizens,  orderly 
God-fearing  people. 

They  made  no  pretense  to  caste ;  they 
knew  too  much  about  themselves. 

As  good  metal  is  now  simmering  in  the 
Melting  Pot  to  strengthen  the  national  alloy. 

They,  too,  will  have  their  opportunities 
in  the  Republic — the  offspring  of  Greeks 
and  Italians  and  Scandinavians. 

Guiseppes,  Estrates  and  Oles  are  destined 
to  wed  your  kin. 

Don't  sniff.  Sparta,  Xorseland  and  Rome 
were  proud  breeders. 

Who  knows  what  valorous  lymph  surges 
in  the  bootblack  at  the  corner  or  the  fruit 
dealer  across  the  way  ? 

They've  forgotten  what  they  were,  to 
concentrate  hope  and  ambition  upon  what 
they  mean  to  be.  Still,  if  occasion  called 
and  ancestors  were  matched,  it's  dollars  to 
crullers  that  your  bunch  wouldn't  have  the 
best  of  it  by  a  long  sight. 

(Incidentally,  it  may  be  pertinent  to  in- 
quire what  you  have  accomplished.  That 
ticket  of  admission  to  select  circles  was 
issued  to  your  grandfather  for  services 
rendered.     Where's  vour  own?' 


REUNITED    BY    GENEALOGIST. 

Winsted,  Conn.,  Sept.  i~. — Mrs.  Silas  B 
Birch,  of  Xorthville,  has  just  heard  from 
a  brother  of  whom  she  lost  track  thirty 
years  ago . 

A  New  York  man  is  compiling  a  gene- 
alogy of  the  Dutcher  family,  and  Mrs. 
Birch,  who  was  Laura  Dutcher  before 
marriage,  had  contributed  data  of  the 
family  in  this  section.  In  one  of  his  let- 
ters the  genealogist  mentioned  he  had  re- 
ceived a  letter  from  her  brother.  Dr.  O.  L. 
Dutcher,  of  Salt  Lake  City,  Utah. 

Mrs.  Birch  wrote  for  her  brother's  ad- 
dress and  receiving  it  wrote  to  him.  Dr. 
Dutcher  replied  that  he  had  sought  his 
sister  vainlv.

CORRECTION  FOR  OGDBN 
GENEALOGY. 

In  the  pamphlet  "Ogdens  of  South 
Jersey,"  published  1894,  in  the  Library  of 
Congress,  I  noticed  recently  that  it  states 
that  John  Ogden  (ancestor  01  ail  tiiese 
Ogdens  in  Southern  New  Jersey)  was  born 
in  "1673"  and  that  his  tombstone  "at  the 
Old  Stone  Church"  shows  that  he  died 
"aged  75  years." 

These  are  mistakes.  He  was  born  in 
1671  ;  and  his  tombstone,  still  standing 
though  slightly  mutilated,  is  in  the  (  >ld 
Fairfield  Cohansey  Graveyard  ( about  one 
mile  northwest  of  the  Old  Stone  Church 
graveyard)  near  Fairton.  Cumberland 
County,  Xew  Jersey,  and  says  that  he  died 
"December  22,  1745,  in  the  75th  year  of 
his  age."  Many  other  corrections  might  be 
made  in  this  pamphlet. 

Further,  this  John  Ogden  was  son  of 
Richard  Ogden  (1610-1687),  of  Fairfield, 
Conn.;  which  R.  O.  was  brother  of  John 
Ogden  (1609-1682),  of  Elizabethtown,  in 
Xorth  Jersey,  about  whose  descendants 
there  is  an  admirable  genealogy  in  the 
Library 'of  Congress.

ancestors.  One  of  our  members  recently 
spoke  very  affectionately  of  some  of  his 
Welsh  ancestors  in  the  17th  generation 
back.  Wonder  if  he  knew  or  thought  there 
were  131,072  of  them.  Some  one  has  said, 
"In  the  complete  man  are  the  forces  of 
many  men."  Doesn't  that  table  emphasize 
that  thought? — Daniel  Smith  Gordon.

ADVERTIZER  FRIDAY,  APR.  18,  1783. 
London,  Feb.  6. 

Yesterday  the  Bedford,  Capt.  Morris, 
from  Nantucket,  made  entry  at  the  custom- 
house : — This  is  the  first  vessel  that  has 
entered  the  river  belonging  to  the  United 
States.  It  is  said  she  touched  at  some  port 
in  France  and  hearing  of  the  peace  im- 
mediately proceeded  here  to  a  market.  She 
is  loaded  chiefly  with  oil. 

Three  American  vessels  which  were  lying 
at  Ostend  when  the  preliminaries  were 
signed,  are  now  in  the  river  off  the  Tower, 
with  the  Thirteen  Stripes  flying.

of  Bourbon  County,  Ky.,  give  the  marriage 
bond  of  James  Stark  and  Susanna  Hart, 
dated  Nov.  3rd,  1786.  I  wish  to  know  the 
name  of  the  father  of  Susanna  Hart.    Jas. 


Stark  was  b.  Feb.  7th,  1757,  in  Stafford  Co., 
Va.,  and  was  g.  s.  of  Jas.  Stark,  emigrant, 
and  his  wife,  Elizabeth  Thornton.  He 
came  to  Bourbon  Co.,  Ky.,  in  1785  and 
settled  on  a  2,000  acre  land  grant  between 
Paris  and  Lexington,  Ky.  He  was  m.  three 
times.  His  first  wife  was  Jane  Fristoe,  his

Stark  d.  in  1819  in  Ky. 

210.  WATTS— John  Watts  was  b.  May 
13,  1766.  He  m. '  1794-5  Elizabeth  Jacoby

Culpeper  Co..  Va.,  and  was  dau.  of  Francis 
Lucas  Jacobij  and  his  wife  Frederica 
Loetspeichwho  were  m.  in  London  in  1764. 
There  seems  to  have  been  any  number  of 
men  by  the  name  of  John  Wratts  wno  lived 
in  Ya.,  at  the  time  of  the  Rev.  War.  I 
think  this  John  Watts  came  from  the  Cul- 
peper family.  The  will  of  one  Thos  Watts 
was  filed  Aug.  22,  1749,  in  Culpeper  Co.,  Ya. 
—Mentions  wife  Esther,  Sons,  Sdwa,  Ed-

Mary  and  Frankey.  In  the  first  census  of 
Fayette  Co.,  Ky.,  were  David,  George  and 
John  Watts .  In  the  first  records  of  Wood- 
ford Co.,  are  found  the  names  Samuel, 
Peter  and  John  Watts.  I  wish  to  prove  the 
name  of  the  father  of  John  Watts  b.  1766. 
with  civil  and  military  service  and  name 
of  his  wife.  Also  name  of  g.  f.,  with  civil 
and  military  service  and  maiden  name  of 
wife.  The  family  of  Elizabeth  Jacoby 
came  to  Ky.,  about  1785.  John  Watts  b. 
1766  came  to  Mo.  in  1816.     He  d.  in  1839.

RICHARD     BULLOCK      OF     REHO- 

BOTH,  1644.  AND  SOME  OF  HIS 

DESCENDANTS. 

By   Hon.   J.   Russell  Bullock. 


In  1641  Governor  Bradford,  under  the 
authority  of  the  Plymouth  charter  of  1629, 
granted  to  Joseph  Peck,  Stephen  Paine  and 
others,  their  associates,  the  territory  con- 
stituting the  original  town  of  Rehoboth  of 
eight  miles  square.  In  the  same  year  John 
Brown  and  Edward  Winslow,  acting  as 
agents  of  the  colony,  extinguished  the  In- 
dian title  to  this  territory  by  purchase  from 
Massasoit.  In  October  1643  Peck,  Paine 
and  their  associates,  the  Grantees  from  the 
Colony,  met  at  Weymouth  and  agreed 
to  move  into  and  settle  upon  this  territory 
within  twelve  months.  They  further 
agreed  with  each  other  to  give  in  an  ac- 
count of  the  value  of  their  estates  in  ordei 
that  the  lands  of  the  town  and  its  charges 
might  be  equitably  allotted  amongst  its  set- 
tlers according  to  their  "persons  and  es- 
tates." In  the  first  recorded  allotments  of 
land  among  the  58  then  proprietors  Lot  No. 
32,  called  the  "Governor's  lot,"  is  stated 
now  to  belong  to  Richard  Bullock,  his  es- 
tate being  rated  at  two  hundred  pounds. 
No  earlier  mention  of  his  name  has  been 
found.  It  does  not  appear  in  the  early 
records  of  Weymouth  or  Hingham.  It  ap- 
pears next  in  1645,  when  he  is  admitted 
a  freeman  of  the  Colony.  It  has  been 
stated  that  Richard  was  a  son  of  Henry  of 
Salem,  1630,  and  who -died  there  in  1652, 
but  Henry  of  Salem,  wife  Susan,  from 
London  in  the  ship  Abigail,  had  only  Hen- 
ry, Mary  and  Thomas;  and  in  his  will  of 
the  date  1652,  he  names  but  one  child 
Henry,  then  deceased,  and  the  latter's 
children,  no  one  of  whom  bears  the  name 
Richard.  Edward  Bullock  of  Dorchester, 
1649,  from  London  1635,  wife  Elizabeth 
will  probated  1656,  names  only  his  wife  and 
daughter  Hannah  (Johnson)  to  whom  he 
gives  all  his  property  after  his  wife's  death. 


No  known  record  exists  of  Richard's  birth- 
place, or  of  his  parentage,  or  of  the  vessel 
in  which  he  came  over.  July  16,  1647,  m 
testifying  in  a  matter  relating  to  the  estate 
of  Alexander  Winchester  dee'd  he  stated 
he  is  then  25  years  of  age.  This  would 
make  the  year  of  his  birth  1622.  He  was 
the  second  town  clerk  of  Rehoboth,  suc- 
ceeding Peter  Hunt,  and  serving  from  1659 
to  1668,  at  a  salary  of  16  shillings  a  year, 
with  additional  fees  for  recording  births, 
marriages,  etc.  In  1644  he  draws  21  rights 
in  the  "Great  ( Seekonk)  Plain."  In  1647 
he  is  allotted  Matthew  Pratt's  rights  in  the 
town  land — Pratt  having  removed  from  the 
town.  In  1653,  June,  he  is  one  of  the 
49  to  draw  for  meadows  in  the  north  part 
of  the  town,  according  to  their  persons 
and  estates.  In  1656  he  visits  Newtown, 
Long  Island,  with  a  view  to  settling  there, 
but  soon  returned  to  Rehoboth.  In  1657 
he  takes  the  oath  of  Fidelity.  In  1658  he 
again  shares  in  the  drawing  of  lands  in  the 
north  part  of  the  town.  In  1662  he  is  chosen 
a  committee  to  see  what  liquors  and  powder 
are  brought  into  the  town.  In  1664  he  is 
licensed  to  keep  a  ferry  on  Palmer's  River. 
In  the  same  year  he  is  chosen  to  collect  the 
town  "assize."  In  1666  he  protests  in  town 
meeting  against  the  citizens  selecting  the 
minister,  declaring  it  to  be  the  work  of  the 
church.  In  the  same  year  he  shares  in  the 
division  of  the  Wannamoisett  lands,  and  in 
1669  his  widow  representing  his  estate, 
shares  in  the  division  of  the  "North  Pur- 
chase." He  died  before  October  20,  1667, 
for  then  Elizabeth,  his  widow,  and  Samuel, 
his  eldest  son,  petition  the  Court  for  a 
division  of  Richard's  lands.  This  division 
as  to  Samuel,  then  of  age,  was  concluded  in 
1670,  when  the  widow  was  allowed  "three 
cows  and  a  mare  for  the  bringing  up  of  the 
small  children."  In  July,  1673,  his  widow 
having  married  again,  the  court  orders 
Richard's  estate  settled  upon  his  children, 
and  in  June,  1677,  the  widow's  second  hus- 
band being  then  dead,  the  court  made  a

death  of  Rev.  Samuel  Newman,  in  1663, 
and  the  organization  of  the  church  at  Swan- 
zey,  it  is  believed  that  Richard,  and  it  is 
known  that  his  family,  attended  the  Swan- 
zey  church  until  1711-12,  when  the  second 
church  building  was  erected  in  Rehoboth. 
It  was  much  nearer  their  residence.  Richard 
settled  upon  a  tract  of  land  of  several  hun- 
dred acres,  lying  mostly  along  the  west 
bank  of  Palmer's  River,  and  extending 
from  near  the  north  boundary  of  Swanzey 
in  the  northerly  direction  to  a  point  nearly 
a  mile  north  of  the  Orleans  Factory  Site. 
A  portion  of  this  land  remained  in  the  name 
of  blood  of  its  first  settler  for  more  than 
two  centuries,  and  the  ancient  "Landing" 
place  below  "Miller's  Bridge"  at  the  head 
of  large  boat  navigation  and  shipment  of 
goods  and  farm  products,  is  still  (1892)  in 
the  ownership  of  Ex.  Gov.  Davis  of  R.  I., 
a  descendant  in  the  seventh  generation. 
Richard  was  twice  married,  first  1647,  Aug. 
11,  to  Elizabeth  Ingrahm,  probably  of  Re- 
hoboth, 1645.  She  died  1659,  Jan.  7.  Sec- 
ond 1660,  July  26,  to  Elizabeth  Billington. 
After  Richard's  death  in  1667,  she  married, 
1673,  June  25,  Robert  Beers  of  Irish  de- 
scent, who  was  killed  by  the  Indians  in 
1676,  March  28,  two  days  after  the  mas- 
sacre of  Capt.  Micah  Pierce's  command 
near  Pawtucket.

ted 1682.  In  1675-6  he  contributed  liber- 
ally to  the  expenses  of  King  Phillip's  War. 
In  1696  he  was  chosen  a  representative  to 
the  General  Court,  but  declined  to  serve. 
He  was  a  large  proprietary  in  the  Rehoboth 
lands,  and  one  of  the  first  purchasers  of  the 
Swanzey  lands.  He  is  believed  to  have 
lived  in  Swanzey  for  a  time.     He  and  his 


wife  Thankful,  and  sons  Richard  and  Ebe- 
nezer  were  active  members  of  Rev.  John 
Wyle's  church,  he  being  for  many  years, 
and  up  to  his  death,  a  deacon  thereof,  Ub 
171 1,  Nov.  15  he  attended  officially  with 
his  pastor,  Rev.  Samuel  Luther,  at  New- 
port, the  ordination  of  Rev.  William  Peck- 
ham,  as  Pastor  of  the  First  Baptist  Church 
there. 

Samuel  was  twice  married,  first  1673, 
Nov.  12,  to  Mary  Thurber  of  Swanzey,  of 
Samuel  of  Rehoboth,  1700,  of  James  of 
England,  1690.  She  died  1674,  Oct.  4,  at 
the  birth  of  her  only  child,  Mary.  Second

both.

3.  Thankful,  born  1681,  June  26.

brother-in-law  Ephriam  Martin's  will.  He, 
in  1699,  March  29,  married  Sarah  Maulton, 
of  Rehoboth.  He  first  settled  in  the  north- 
erly part  of  the  town,  but  upon  his  father's 
death  removed  to  a  farm  on  Rocky  River, 
later  known  as  the  Judge  Stephen  Bullock- 
farm  where  it  is  believed  Samuel  lived  and 
died,  and  where  Ebenezer  died.  This  farm 
when  entire  contained  about  200  acres  upon 
the  east  side  of  Palmer's  River,  south  of  the 
ford  and  mill  site  upon  the  river  then 
known  as  Bullock's  mill  (in  which  Ebenezer 
was  an  owner),  and  upon  both  sides  of  the 
road  leading  southerly  from  Burying  place 
Hill  towards  the  Rocky  River  ford,  both 
of  which  fords  were  later  bridged  and 
known  as  Miller's  and  Brayton's  bridges 
respectively.  Ebenezer  is  believed  to  have 
built  in  17 19  the  house  on  the  westerly  side 
of  the  road  upon  this  place  which  was  torn 
down  in  this  year  (1898)  by  Elisha  Davis, 
one  of  his  descendants  to  whom  and  to 
whose  ancestors  and  family  a  portion  of  the 
farm  has  ever  since  belonged.  (And  an 
account  book  of  his  hearing  date  1701  to 
1719  was   found   in  the  partitions   of   the

of  the  celebrated  Dack  family,  (descend- 
ants of  two  Irish  emigrants,  whose  real 
names  are  hidden  under  the  name  of  Dack), 
their  numerous  progeny  have  been  a  men- 
ace and  charge  upon  various  communities, 
not  through  feeble  mindedness  but  rather 
through  what  the  present  day  students  name 
as  Hereditary  lack  of  emotional  control.

cestry and  neighboring  families.  The  War- 
rens of  Warrenville  is  another  of  the  many

DIVINE  AUTHORITY  FOR  GOOD 
AXCESTRY. 


There  is  but  a  simple  instance  of  a  Per- 
sonage in  the  position  of  being  able  to 
choose  his  own  ancestors.  That  is  the  se- 
lection of  Mary  and  Joseph  to  be  the  par- 
ents of  Christ. 

Joseph  and  Alary  were  first  cousins, 
therefore  same  lineage,  of  the  Royal  Dine 
of  the  House  of  David;  God  might  have 
chosen  a  line  of  less  distinction,  but  as  He 
made  a  Royal  choice  we  have  divine  sanc- 
tion to  our  pride  in  notable  pedigree.
